LETTERS FROM THE PAST

This blog is to honor those who have come before us. These are family letters that I have had for years and wanted to be able to share them with family. It's an interesting way of knowing how life was in the past.

Myron F Taylor with 3 of his buddies in 1952. Over the last 20 years I've been working on our family letters. Letters that have been passed down. Including letters from my parents to my great-grandmother. Every letter was saved by my great grandmother and grandmother. I hope someday to either print them or give them to a museum. I am copying the letters–not being able to photocopy all of them. Each letter is in script. I know today very few can read them. I hope you enjoy them.

Marion Wineland Re: Irvin Wineland July 1963

July 29, 1963

Dear Archie and Mabel:

Hate to worry you unnecessarily but thin I should let you know that Irvin is in the Hospital in San Diego. This morning he got dizzy, and passed out for a few minutes. Then when the neighbors and I got him on to the cot (he was in the garage with it happened) he vomited blood so took him to the hospital. He seems quite himself to talk to so it wasn’t a stroke but a hemoridge. The doctors are checking. They don’t think its his chest but seems to be in his stomack or maybe an ulcer. Anyway hope its noting too bad.

As soon as I can find out I will let you  know. They gave him an x-ray, and stuck a tube down in him. We had to come back to Fallbrock tonight. My neighbors were with me. The doctors will check some more. It is a good hospital and I am sure will get good care. I think they will transfer him to the veterans hospital if he has to stay awhile. He seemed to feel quite well this morning before it happened and ate his breakfast as usual. Well don’t worry too much and I promise to let you know as soon as I can see what develops, He does not seem to be in any pain at all and talks quite strong and sensible as usual.

 

Love, for now, Marion
