My Darling:
I got home last night. Here are two letters telling me that you’re coming up. I’m making this answer to you to say “Thank God”! I was going to write you to please come here as soon as you could ; and to please plan to stay as long as you feel well here. You write that you hope I will be glad to see you. I not only will be glad to see you : I have to see you. The situation in my life—and in yours, as mine affects it—is serious. Please come. I need your help, your understanding as I have never needed it before.
Lovingly,
Rockwell
