    HENDERSON, NEVADA August 7 , 1957 Dear Al# Good Morning and how are all of the little aches this morning? No doubt you will be coming home soon since you are not the type to sit back and relax even when you are forced to under the present circum- stances* It was so good to hear you the other day and to think that you were so alert right after surgery* Pm afraid I wouldn?╟╓t have managed as well* I delivered your message to Mr* Dubin and he assured me that he would take care of things "pronto"?╟≤ I received my sample today and immediately sent it on to Mother Gerald* The wrapper is very attractive and the Angel really looks like he is up to tricks* So here is hoping that this venture will be the means to bring in some immediate funds for our proposed expansion program* I just learned through Mr* Don Baker that the 40 bed addition will cost $450j000 so that means I?╟╓ll have to do some praying plus many other^things Tf we want to build before the end of 1958* At the present time he is computing figures as to the Hill-Burton Fund and to what our quota should be on the over-all picture* Mr* Baker will get in touch with me just as soon as he has something more concrete to present and then it will be up to us to manage the rest* He is personally interested in our project and I will have to depend on his good judgment* Here I am all wrapped up in business and you shouldn?╟╓t even be dis- turbed with ray headaches* I know that you will say a prayer for this while you are recuperating and God knows that we will need all the help we can get - materially and spiritually* Keep up your sunny smile and it won?╟╓t be long before you are back in sunny Nevada* In the meantime we will continue to pray for you and your happiness and are deeply grateful for your personal help in the further development of the Hospital* God bless you always*
