Hi,
The answer is 'end'. This is about a writer who has written most of the story except for the last part and doesn't know how to write the ending.

Hi Alan,
Now exceptionally I don't understand your answer. The mistake can be in me. You wrote: The answer is 'end'. To what is the answer is 'end' ? I can't see the question? Where should I write the ending?
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I am under the weather. Yesterday evening when I came back from the hospital I saw the letters and to kill time I answered . Not to repeat myself I looked for something new.
My husband had to go to the hospital on Monday morning. The trouble came like a bolt out of blue .Pneumonia and pleurisy.
We wanted to rearrange our flat because it was a painting.(We had to paint his room as he has a lung-illness and he noticed that the old paint were coming off the wall. It was like a "white " silicosis) The painting had been ready yesterday evening and I am alone and I have to arrange the things, everything is covered in dirt.
I went visit my husband on Monday, on Tuesday and on Wednesday but today he told me not to go, try to clean what I can. On Saturday somebody will come help me.
I am under the weather . Its cause not the cleaning but I lost my confidence and I am hopeless.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Now I've opened for some minutes my laptop and I found your answer what I don't understand . Will you please to explain . Many thanks. Regards: Kati svaby _________________ Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend. |

Many thanks Alan. It is clear. I thought that the mistake was in me. I didn't read the whole thread that's why I thought you had answered my letter- this disturbed me.
You answered the #30. Okay.
I am very sorry.

Hello Nhunghien,
The #32 letter was written to you. I believed that it is an answer to my letter.But non it is an answer to your letter.
Many thanks you sympathize with me.
