Stoufflet has had a heart attack and was recommended to resign for the sake of her health, treating a woman suffering from varicose veins after a broken leg, gifts from the families of her patients, visit to the local church to see the organ, which is fine but badly played, the organist might be able to help her get permission to practise on an older, smaller organ in another church, looking forward to having that outlet.
