Yesterday we had a great trouble again in convincing Father that we really do need a new car and it is a good investment. Kellner, the man from the Opel service had to come out twice. We have been to see Father Omerovich at the Hospital St Frances of Assisi in Hűvösvölgy. It was quite an excursion.…

Father quite alright and coming home. Yesterday all day I tried to get Leon but my ringing was not answered. So I tried again this morning and spoke with his brother. Ha asked if he wouldn’t do and I answered, I’m afraid with too much rigour, that he wouldn’t. Well I’m sure no one would. Except…

Alone all week. The operation was done this morning it is a success. According to the Drs. Father feeling well, but I felt faint this morning when I saw all the blood etc. and couldn’t bear the smell. Such a nerve reaching odour. I wasn’t feeling so ill since ages. Nearly thought I couldn’t go home,…

Father went into Hospital again. At present they are doing examinations only but the operation is necessary. He has a lovely big room above the entrance and a new nurse. Dr. Farkas is awfully nice, little Rotterheim (?) also.

Time I wrote last we went to the Hospital with Father three times weekly. Every other day he is better. They took of the bandages yesterday but this morning he had to go to the Dr for he was not well. It seems he isn’t quite fit yet after all as we hoped. He even thought he might go to Karlsbad but…

Father slightly better after our visit to the Hospital. Dr. Hempel still not overinformative. Means to leave everything to the next operation and Father’s previous stay at their place. It seems Karlsbad will be off after all. I wonder. No sign of Leon. Of course I’ll leave it at that. He must make…

Father came home this morning. The Dr doesn’t say much. He is to go in about twice a week, if anything goes wrong Dr. Hempel is to be called. Father seems to be rather weak and the operation didn’t help in the way we thought. I think our old Dr will be dropped. If only Vin. would be at home he at…

Early in the morning Leon rang me up. It seem we have a different outlook as he apparently was most pleased about yesterday. He is to go abroad on business any day now. Yesterday’s was a farewell visit, though he may not know it. I had a long talk with Dr Szücs the gentleman next room to my Father’s…

Father to come home in two days only. It seems they think another operation is necessary. I. e. they started the sort which is done in two phases. I hate these people. One of the Drs (Hempel) remembered me on account of my appendicitis years ago. He even remembered the room I was in. I couldn’t…

Today Mother went in to see the Drs. It seems she was a bit upset and told them her opinion. Serves then right. Father is to come home tomorrow. I speak with Leon nearly every day. Today we made an appointment to meet in the afternoon, but I phoned him too late so it was off.
