Linda:

I love you dearly and miss you very much. Sometimes when I telephone the Hospital they tell me you don’t want to talk to me. I need you to please answer these four questions for me, by circling YES or NO and giving the paper back to Chuck for him to bring it to me. Please, whatever the answers are, I need to know what you want and to hear it from you.

1.     Do you want to come home?

YES                                                                                                                             NO

2.     Do you want me to be here for you when you come home?

YES                                                                                                                             NO

3.     Do you want me to keep fighting to get you out of Indiana University Hospital?

YES                                                                                                                             NO

4.     Do you want me to call you in the evenings and read to you at bedtime like we used to do?

YES                                                                                                                             NO

Everything else we can talk about whenever they do let me talk to you on the phone. I just need these answers to guide me day by day.

I love you and miss you.

Jim
