We went from the “haves” to the “have-nots”. Or so we thought.5 what we discovered later were all the gifts that came out of 6 difficulties. We came to learn that something 7could happen in a disaster. All over the world people8 Chris so much that letters and postcards poured in every day. By the end of the third weekin a9center in Virginia, about 35,000 pieces of 10had been received and sorted.As 11 , we opened letter after letter. They gave us 12and became a source of strength for us. We used them to 13ourselves. I would go to the pile of letters marked with “Funny” if we needed a 14, or to the “Disabled” box to find advice from people in wheelchairs or15in bed living happily and16.These letters, we realized, had to be shared. And so 17we offer one of them to you.Dear Chris,My husband and I were so sorry to hear of your18accident last week.
