Post cards from the Troops etc. are materialising at last. We have to pay 8 cents each ((to get a post card to send)).
Mabel went to Dr Talbot ('Harry') who sent her to hospital. She has got thin again, says she often feels dizzy. It makes me rather frightened to look at her. Dr Erooga said he considered the goitre he'd said Mabel had, was larger.*
Father Moore came over and gave us some cocoa and sugar and milk. He and the other young Maryknoll Fathers are going out tomorrow ((into town, with the hope of eventually being allowed to go to their Missions or USA)).
((* Comment from Mabel in 2012: "I don’t think I ever realised the seriousness of my illness at the time. But I have had to take Thyroxine every day of my life since the examination at a hospital in Birmingham (when we were in Coventry) after we were in England. For many years the medication was 3 drops of iodine in milk every day......now just pills. And I have a blood test for it every year."))
