Hey ST,

Thanks for sharing these. It's interesting to know with hindsight that H said these letters helped. I imagine you were nervous when you first gave them to him. You must have timed them really well for when he was ready to take them in, despite the A. (I bet letter 2 threw a wrench in his getaway weekend!) He must have had doubts about what he was doing, even in the thick of it.

I hope I'll be able to write a letter to DH like this someday. Unfortunately, right now he has (or claims to have) zero doubts about "what has to be done" (not that *he's* doing anything---it just has to be done...by someone) that that seed would fall on barren ground. Stories like yours help me look forward, though, so thank you for that! You're very strong.
