March 1, 1942 con't

Haven't had a letter from Kreigh and Anne for weeks. I can't understand how Anne can fail to send her mother at least a card. Poor Evelyn is so worried about her and when she doesn't hear calls me up to see if I've heard. The poor dear has so many things to bother her that she's just beside herself, but she never tells Anne – thinking to save her. Children can certainly be very thoughtless at times. I know they must be having to move very shortly, but, even so, Anne could send a card. Evelyn said Anne had been having trouble with the baby, but I do hope to hear in the morning that everything is all right now. I am very disappointed that Anne didn't take better care of herself during pregnancy. Anne is very intelligent and she knows what she should do – heaven knows she's been steeped in medical lore since infancy ¬ but she won't do anything toward safeguarding her health. It wouldn't be quite so bad if it were just herself who suffered but it's all of us – especially the baby. Well, I suppose it is trite, but true – There are none so blind as those who will not see.
