Dear Friend,

How it pains me to acknowledge my granddaughter's recovery, though I am glad she has I also know it concludes my time spent here. She will no longer need me, or desire for me to stay...she has Marianne and in her own way Betina. And who am I to complain or find fault in it? Her grandmother -- Ha! What kind of grandmother would do as I did? I good grandmother would not had hurt her as I have. Well enough dilly-dally and feeling sorry for myself.

I shall return to San Francisco as soon as time permits, tomorrow if at all possible and forget this ever happened. No dear friend do not remind me, I shall never speak of these events again. Anthony and Jacquelyn De La Vega will be but a memory. I have decided it is for the best...for her best and his. As I fear, any other way would hurt him...and her.
