Missive Dated April 33

You would call me a fool just like you always do whenever I do something impulsive. I went out to the shed to look at it again, promising myself I wouldn’t go near it. Next thing I know, my hand was reaching out and I touched it. Before you get upset, I want you to be assured that I will be fine. I really don’t know what possessed me to do such a thing.

Mother had to call doctor and had of course no explanation why my arm was twitching uncontrollably without ceasing. We were lucky the doctor chalked it up to some kind of nervous disorder. He gave me some medicine to quell the effects, but i still am forced to write this with one hand as it does not work that well. Force of habit at this point to write to you about anything of note. It would feel wrong not to. Anyways, I am going to have see doctor more until we can figure something out. You don’t have to worry about us saying a word.

Dad and Mum would never risk the ward.

I know its hard for you to get long messages to me from wherever you are, but these one line missives tell me next to nothing, if they even are the truth, if they even are from you. You need to at least tell me what I should do next about this.
