Dear children Henny and Yaakov,
We just received your card. I can't begin to express the Mitzvah what you had by writing these few word and delighted us. First about your loved health, 2nd from your happiness Thank God for everything. Now dear Henya, further from our side we are also content. Thank god we have a roof over our head and beds to sleep in, and covers to cover ourselves also Baruch Hashem. And Bread thank God for this and only with health further. but for Leah Baila with her dear weak children and weak husband, save up and send packages even if its hard you must since they hunger or a piece of bread. I can't and don't want to write out what letters we receive from them. I would have not written just I feel lighter
if I talk aa little. You asking if she has warm clothing, even cold ones she doesn't have. They went out with their life, and didn't know what to grab only what's necessary and hoped ____ elder get itself together and find familiar people. And she is Nebech forced out into a desert. I must finish up my tears are choking me.. So my dear sorry for writing and don't get overwhelmed we have to live with hope. your good wishing mother Hinda Yehudes.
