My precious beloved Mama!
I am so awfully sorry that you are not feeling well. Oh! When will you get better, my sweet Mama? Hope so much that soon. When He will come you will be better and then it will be such a joy and a happy time for me. What did you do these last years my Mama darling, that you are not as well as you were before? It make's me so sad and anxious. I know when our dear Friend will be near us, Mama darling will feel better and not so week as now. Shall pray in Church for God to send you strength. God grant soon you will walk about like always before this year and last year. You asked me yesterday why did I cry, because it make's me to awfully sad to see you so week and tired. Your one tired look make's me feel that you suffer. Good bye sweet Mama. A true kiss from your very own daughter Olga. God bless you, be near you.
