Dear Gram,

Gee I am sure sorry I missed writing you a letter for the last few days but I just couldn’t do it on account of my foot. I sat down several times and started to write you a letter but my foot hurt so bad and I felt so bad that I couldn’t concentrate on the letter so I gave up until now. I feel much better now and the infection is almost gone out of my foot. I am getting mail pretty regular now and it sure helps a lot. I felt pretty discouraged for awhile when I didn’t get any mail. You can’t say much in these V-mail forms but they are faster than air mail. Write soon

Much love,

XX

Mike
