Dear Hermione,
I hope you are healing okay and feeling better. I know that sometimes it's hard to get a moment to yourself when you want one because everyone tries to be with you, to make you feel okay. So instead of visiting you, I'm sending you this in a letter. When I woke up in St. Mungo's I felt so helpless and weak, not knowing what had happened or how much time had past. It's a scary feeling, and you're probably feeling something like that now. So I got you some things that I hope will help you through the healing process. The book is like a diary, but you can write anything down in there, even if it's really mean or petty or selfish. Once you set the charms on it, it will only open for you - not even Harry or Ron will be able to read it. And the punching bag is for punching, obviously. It really helps to take all your frustration and pain out on an inanimate object. I've enjoyed Beating mostly for that reason. Although Bludgers tend to hit back.
I hope these things will help you; I've always admired your strength and tenacity and anything I can do to help you get that back I will.
Love,
Katie
