Dear Marion,

Thank you for your letter with the medical up-date.
Azithromycin is my favorite antibiotic, and it's very
unlikely to do you any harm. I suspect the nurse-practitioner
who treated you didn't know what was going on,
and I hope you get better so quickly that the mystery
disappears before it can be solved. But please keep me
informed.

At 11:45 p.m. this evening, I finished reading Micha's
autobiographical sketch. I'm much impressed. For me, at
least, it fulfills its function of expanding my world
to include some inkling of what Micha has seen and heard
and thought. As a perennially unpublished author myself, 
I'm in no position to estimate whether the manuscript
would be of interest to a potential publisher. No surprise
that my own treatment of the topic might be somewhat
different in spots.

If you or Micha would like my considerations and ideas
I should surely try to be helpful. However, since in
general, I'm uninterested in criticism of my own writing,
I will, unless asked, keep any suggestions for improvement
to myself.  For me, the text is valuable in its present
state.

It's beyond my bedtime. I'll write to Micha tomorrow.

Jochen
