Mother Thérèse Camille, seeing that she could not use all her fortune, donated it to her family, retaining only some life annuities to meet her financial commitments. At this time she also decided to leave the Carmelite convent in Paris, since she knew the Carmelite community could not manage the maintenance and the expense after her death. Mother Thérèse Camille, at the age of 84, left the convent with the Carmelites on 23 April 1845 and settled in the Avenue de Saxe in Paris in a new convent built for them by Mother Thérèse Camille.
