Dear Alex,
It looks like my prayers have been answered because I woke up today with no signs or symptoms of any sort. Mother dropped a pan of eggs when she saw me watch into the kitchen. I think I even saw father crack a smile for the first time in ages. Even my landlord was happy to see me up, probably because he knows I am the best worker on the property. Things seem to be looking up but I wonder what the heck caused me to fall ill in the first place. I also don't know what to do about father still, he is quite ill.
It is becoming winter and I fear that this is going to be a rough one. With everything that has been happening I really hope I can save up enough money to buy some warmer clothes for father who I hope will not get any sicker. I haven't had contact with the rest of the family recently having been so absorbed in worrying about mother and father, I hope they are doing ok.
How are things in America? Your last letter made it sound like you are doing very well. I hope that whole being a lawyer thing works out for you. America sounds like a wonderful place. Sometimes I wish I had joined you in going. Alright well I have to get back out to the fields but I will write you again soon friend. So long.
Cousin Conor
