Another good chapter. You make us feel that we know your characters through brief sketches.

This chapter is longer than usual and very good. I like the way you fill out the character of the love you long to meet so strongly that he has already become part of your life. The testing for osteoarthritis adds a powerful bittersweet note.

lol at the last line. Not that I mean to laugh off the angst, which is clearly felt. It was just a surprise to learn that he is Paula's warrant officer.

Nicely done. Not many of us can pour out our hearts in
such a charming way. Avery seems to be a positive
influence for a girl in distress.

A cute, breezy attempt to pretend that you don't really
care for him anymore. I might almost be convinced, if
it wasn't so easy to read between your lines.

These letters are stunning. The tone, the wording, the anecdotes. (I think that's how you spell it?) It's all beautiful and so so sad.

Oh, wow. That was beautiful and heartbreaking so amazingly written.

Umm...that was...I can't find the right word, but I'm thinking a mix of heartbreaking and amazing. I want to know more about him! Please? Maybe a letter describing those...

Anyway, I thought it was an amazing/heartbreaking piece. I hope that you'll find some more inspiration...and I feel bad saying that because it seems it took some depressing stuff to write this...
