(1992 November 16)
How am I? Well, far from good. I think I'd describe it as weak. "I eat, I drink, but not as I should" - taken from an old song, "Georgette, Georgette, why can't you be good.?"
Polly Kay (1904-1997) vividly and with humor describes her life in Richland Center, Wisconsin, in excerpts from letters to her son Skip written after 1949, including her 5 last years in an old folks' home.
