Baby misses you so yet. She thinks every man she sees coming is "pa-pa" and when she heard the furnace door open one morning in bed she raised up and said "papa". I am afraid she will not know you when she sees you again. Helen has had rheumatism in one leg but I think it will go away when the weather grows warmer.

I went to see Dr. [?] — a lady doctor — and showed her my legs — and explained my affliction to her. She said she knew she could help me and thought she could cure me. She has a bathroom where she gives massages and electrical treatment off from her office. I will make some arrangement with her about the [?] and am going to try it, as I am so anxious
