Edward,
I am sorry it has taken me a while to respond to you. Between recovering from injury, the various things I am working on, and doing quite a bit of thinking, I have not been able to write to you until now. I hope you do not mind. And it so happens that any communication between us will have to only be in writing for a while, which should suit you fine, it sounds like, as I am supposed to refrain from moving my jaw much while it is healing. I assume you have by now heard about what happened, so there is no need to explain that. I am told that given another two weeks, my jaw will be well enough to allow me to talk more regularly, but until then I am getting by well enough in writing.
Enclosed is the instructions on making your medication. I do not want you to feel as though I am holding you dependent on me for any reason. You were content enough with letting me make them for a long time, and I appreciate the trust you put in my abilities to allow me to do that. But I think you should be allowed the option of making it yourself.
Thank you for allowing me this last chance. In taking the time to step back, I have rebuilt ties with the others around me who matter, and it was wrong of me to depend on you and distrust them. I see that now, and I am glad they have forgiven me for acting so poorly. You were right in that I should have paid them more heed. Now that I am doing so, my life is settling back into place more easily. I truly appreciate the advice you had given me, for even if I have realized it later now than I should have, at least I do understand now. And I apologize for not listening to you sooner.
I hope all is well with you, and I hope Herr Envy is treating you well. Although I am certain he is. He is very lucky to have you, and you are lucky to have him. I hope that someday I will find someone who cares as much about me as he cares about you, because it is obvious he cares very deeply. For that, I am glad.
In sincerity and friendship,
Alfons
