Fch-1970

October 8, 2008

I was in the FCH in Helena for 2 or 3 months in spring of 1970 and again for the last month of my pregnancy. I gave birth to my son July 21, 1970. It seems like I remember lots and nothing important. I wish I could remember the girls that were with me there. I shared a room that had a fire escape, I remember the walks uphills and the leg cramps, and the sheer terror of being alone to have the baby. My social worker was Joyce with LSS in Billings. Do you remember the piano in the parlor and all the milk we drank?

I was at the home from dec. 1969 to march of 1970. I remember quite a bit about the place but has been so long now, cant remember names. I remember the spare clothes in the basement and the pottery classes. Also the buzzer under the rug in the dining hall. beautiful old house.
