“My dearest Twinka, I recognize your courage in caring for your friends despite your suffering. Vava keeps me informed of your health, which I hope is better. Mine is full of mischief and whimsy. Maurice and I are waiting for the Constellation and the various strikes to allow us to go and enjoy the supposedly brilliant sunshine in Monte Carlo… From there, I will remind you of your dear friendship. From here, I send you my love, and Maurice is your respectful friend, Colette.”
