"I have really appreciated the mail that you have forwarded to Don from the website. Each time a message arrives I print it out and take it to him; he is mostgrateful to be hearing from others. I can report that he was moved to a rehab facility on July 5 and will be there perhaps two weeks before coming home. The pneumonia is largely resolved, though he is still taking antibiotics, and his ankle, still in a cast, is healing, but the physical therapy he will get in this rehab hospital will help him become more mobile, more self-reliant and enable him to move safely.He mourns the loss ofhis summer writing time, and longs to return to his novel-in-progress called Enduring. I have told him that this long experience will make him even moreconfident that he can write aboutthe nature of endurance. "
