To-day 16th December 2016. Exactly two years ago, we moved from Praisehaven in the west of Singapore to Peacehaven in the East! We have occupied this lovely unit on the rooftop of Peacehaven Nursing Home. We call it our Penthouse with a lovely garden.
When my wife and I retired in 1997, we first stayed with our son and family at Choa Chu Kang, till the unit at Hillview Park was ready - it was a very small unit, but lovely surroundings.
Then when Praisehaven was ready, we moved to a unit at The Salvation Army Praisehaven on the fourth floor. We were not far from our children and grandchildren.

Visiting our youngest special daughter, Dora Poh Chin at Peacehaven Nursing Home was no problem when I could still drive and a vehible was available. Later we had to depend on public transport it was difficult. The journey plus waiting time takes two hours each way. As we aged, we are more restricted in our movements.
Anyway the grandchildren are all grown up - two are married, and the youngest grandson is old enough to look after himself, we decided to move to our present unit.
We believe it has been God's plan. Our children and grandchildren visit us regularly. God has indeed been very good to us. We are well supported by the staff of Peacehaven Nursing Home. When we have to visit the Polyclinic or Hospital, one of the off duty nurses or caregivers would accompany us to give support. We both use walking sticks, but embarking and disembarking from vehicles pose a challenge. God has His lovely angels caring for us.
"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11
