Dear Donna,
Well guess I will drop you a line or so, to let you know I am still alive! I supose bu now you have heard from verne I hope so as I got a letter from him saying that he write you for hte first time in quite a while he is epecting to come home soon but I suppose he told you all that and more. Donna I am encling a small pair of wings as you are a little girl. ha ha. hope you like them. Well you remmebr i told you I had three teeth filled, well had an absess also and when he filled them he disturbed it so I had to have pulled out, then it got infected so he had to apperate and cut away some bone so now I am in the hospital in bed and suppose I will be untill the end of the week. I hope had so much novecanme and penicilin thats to kill the pain.
