This is letter number 18, written by my mom, Sarah Allgood, to my dad, Dick, on May 10, 1971.
The more I read these letters, the more I believe they saved them for a reason—not to be shared in the moment, but to be read long after they were gone. Maybe even by me.
Because what they had wasn’t ordinary. It was rare. It was true. And I think they both knew that kind of love deserves to live on.
In this letter, my mom is exhausted after a long day of surgeries and stress, but still finds the space to write to Dick with humor, affection, and—maybe—some life-changing news.
