Scope and content
Enjoyed Beaton's jokes. Asks for news about Osbert's will. Is now being rushed as a heart case. Has not seen any friends for nearly a week as talking feels like swimming against waves. Yesterday was the first time for a month that she could read. Can never be grateful enough to Diana for her kindness for the seven weeks. Mentions Lily's wedding. Discusses Doctor Borenius.
