Though so far away we can ask him to guide the surgeon's hand

Dear Mr Barwick,

I wish to thank you very much for your kindness in writing to us about Andrew.

We are very thankful to God for his great kindness to us in sparing his life to us, we appreciate it to the full, and sincerely hope to have him with us once more, he was ever a comfort and help in our home.

In language I cannot express how grateful I feel for all the kindness showered upon him. We just feel God is understanding for us and all must be well. 

Though so far away we can ask him to guide the surgeon's hand and give wisdom to all that tn him. - Go's ear is ever open to the cry of his people. When I opened the letter telling me he was wounded it was one of the hardest hours of my life, to have to tell them all, but I found his Grace sufficient for my hour of need, and now we see the silver lining as the cloud passes over.

Please do thank the members of the YMCA for all they have done for our son, wishing your work every success,
           I am
                 yours sincerely
                               A.M.S. Waugh
