Now dear dad don’t worry as I am perfectly all right and getting on well – Teddy is getting on splendidly”
Writing himself to his sister later he says :- “I am not so well just now, but I think I am on the mending side. I have lost my left leg below the knee and I cannot get much sleep with it, but never mind, sister I may be all right soon.
