Dear Dad Mum & All.
I can only hope and trust you are well – Its awfully trying though – not a letter this five month – I expect I shall get them all in a heap one of these days
I'm quite settled down – and really I'm getting on so well. You need have not the least concern about my leg, for I'm sure that now that I shall not be as I believed – My right leg is 3/8 ths. to half an inch shorter than the left, but that is a mere detail. The sinews are joining up wonderfully well.
I sent a card to our Red Cross a few days ago, directing them to send you a cable, to effect that I was out of hospital – and well I suppose you got War Office Cable to say that I was "Missing"
– I'm sure it gave you a great shock .
I receive nice parcels from the Red Cross, but 'tis mail I long for. I need not ask you to write as often as you can
Love and kisses from your very aff. son & bro.
Will
