Dearest Ma;
The specialist has just finished an “Electro Cardiac” reading of my condition, and just told me the result. I am to start sitting up in a rolling chair Monday or Tuesday next. A few minutes a day, then after a few weeks I am to be allowed to walk a big every day, till my strength is back. He claims this will take about one month.
I am very glad of this inspection, as I was getting a bit in the dump for the last few days; however quite satisfied now.
Still no mail from you.
Lots of love
Dad
