I looked for letters last week and this. I hope neither of you is sick. How are all the others you wrote about? I hope Doris and Sid are keeping well. I think it must be too cold for you to work out in the garden. You need to be careful not to take cold.

My arm still bothers me badly. I can't seem to use it much except in the elbow and hand; the shoulder won't work much, and when I do try it it is painful, but I still hope it will get better some time.
