  Ft. Lupton, Colorado 1 Dear daughter

this letter is to greet you you, your husband and the kids. I received your Grandmother Card that Billy boy sent me. I hope you are well and feeling better.

Well, Max is working here now, and there is always work around the house.

But Helen told me that she is very pleased because she will have a new goddaughter, and Kathy says it’s a sister, how nice. It seems like she likes babies a lot. And she also told me that you are coming here to Fort Lupton,

well now I know, so I won’t rent out the rooms. You know, it took me a little while to respond to you because I have been very sick; I was truly sick. You know that I have to take pills every day and I ran out, and I

thought I was alright, and I didn’t take them for a day and that night I woke up gasping and I couldn’t even breathe, and I almost couldn’t speak. I woke up about 11:30 that night,

and I was like that until three in the morning when Max went to tell Jess that I was very sick. So then Jess called the doctor, Federico, because he is taking care of me. He came around about 4:30 in the morning and gave me a shot and pills, and now I’m very well, thanks to my loving God,

but yes I almost died. But don’t worry, because now I’m well. The doctor told them to take me to the hospital for an examination to find out what’s wrong with me, so now they’re taking me on Saturday, June 6, and if they find me really ill they will leave me there only one or two weeks

I think, because now I feel really well, so I tell you, don’t trouble yourself.

Max is working and I think this will be all for now. Many regards Warm regards Love for all, from Max, Jesse and family, and from me, your mother who wishes you much happiness.

Kathy says that she does want to visit you but that her mom wont let her, and Jerry is working. I wish Billy boy would like to come here with us. There is a lot of beet now. Max is working here with the Japanese; he has 20 acres that are very close to the house.

Well daughter, I wish you always blessings in everything, your mom who wishes she could be closer to you all, Jesusita B. Torres

Receive my blessing.
