IX., Berggasse 19

Dear friend,

You shall have the report that you ask for. On the whole, I am not doing badly. On the positive side should be entered the fact that my six hours of work do not leave a trace of intellectual or bodily fatigue, but rather that the whole form of life is perceived as a comfortable laziness. The damaged functions are exercised in a very uneven fashion, good and bad days diverge greatly from one another. On the other hand, all sorts of torments—not surprising with half of the face hypesthetic—won't cease, and disturb my comfort. Some advantage will be promised me from improving the prosthesis;
