Kati Andai's mother Margit Erdos in a sanatorium in Budakeszi

Mother in a sanatorium in Budakeszi. She spent some time here after being in Meran for 6 weeks. She contracted tuberculosis and the doctor said that she had better go to a sanatorium in the South, so she went to Meran for about six weeks. I was 7 at the time. Father went to visit her there and she sent me sweets and a teddy bear. When my father was gone, I was with the domestic help who worked for my parents for 40 years. She started with us when I was two. She was almost a family member, this Boriska.
