Dear Betsy,
So much is happening here. Bob is in critical condition at Toledo Hospital. He is now in CCU. That is where I used to work. I have a hard time getting out to see him. He just turned bad tonight. I pray he will get well.
Sandy got a letter from Matt today. They are going to be friends. She went on a date to a dance Saturday night with Keith. She is doing well. She is over eating and vomitting. I am worried about her. She is not happy. She nearly choked to death Friday night after going to a party and eathing four pieces of pizza, etc. She can't eat one of anything and stop. I called Dr. Adler today and he hopes to see her soon.
I write in my journal every night. I do exercises also. I have to stay off my feet 12 hours every night and most of the day. It is a hard way to live but I am slowly learning.
How is school and Rainbow girls? How come you aren't writing to me? I miss you and your letters.
Bob's name went on the temple Prayer chain tonight. We usually go to the Episcopal church.
Our weather is really warm here the past 2 days. It is like spring. I wish I could walk like I used to.
Well, I will close. Remember I love you. Grandpa, Grandma and Aunt Ida are well. They are worried about Bob, Sandy and me.
All my love,
Mom
This is my mother. She left me when I was just 14 years old. I saw her a few times from teenage through the typical college years (although I didn’t have typical college years) and then she passed away before I married or had children. She was a wonderful woman that I know I would talk to her often if she were alive, but I really never got the chance.
The most current entries are things I would tell her and only her ... because they aren’t meant to be heard, just vented (if she were alive). The majority of this blog are letters she wrote to me (and a few to my sisters) during the years that we were apart.
