Dear Rifka,

I miss you so bad, the guards have come looking for your family. I wish I could come to America so we could play like we use to.

I can not believe what they did to you. That man was so mean to you. You paid him all the money you had. Just for one orange, I bet your mom was mad. I want you to come back to Russia.

I heard you lost all your hair from ringworm. Has it grown back yet? How are the ladies treating you? I hope they are treating you very well. I wish I could hold you with my hands and say everything's going to be alright but I can't because you are so far away from me.

Maybe soon my family will be coming to America to join yours, if youever get there. It will be a long journey but I know you can make it. Once you get to America please write me and tell me how it is. I imagine it's going to be better there.

Shalom, my cousin,

Tovah
