All day in bed waited on hand & foot by Brise who is making a slave of herself for me, nothing is too much no journey is too long. Food is her greatest worry what will please me most & in these day there are big food troubles
First the consumers refuse to buy then the suppliers refuse to supply Often she has long walks to get anything & all the while humping the big load she has already bought. She has a heart of gold, & that refined.

Still in bed but making great strides towards recovery. Still the same patient & careful attention. Was ever man so carefully & thoughtfully tended I wonder A cousin arrives & stays the night
