It is sad you are so ill — I quite understand your not wanting to see me3 just now. I do hope all these remedies will produce a good result. Do let me know how you get on. I loved our time in Richmond Park4 — I came to life more than for a long time.
Fearfully busy — must stop — My love, my dear one — My thoughts are with you always.
