Annie’s Story
I still don’t feel well, I stayed all week in the Infirmary but I don’t feel any
better. It was a roof over my head though, a free one. I’d still be there if they’d
let me stay. But no, they gave me pills and sent me packing, just like
everybody else.
I don’t even have the money for a bed tonight. Would it really hurt them to
let me stay just one night? They want their pound of flesh, everybody does.
I‘ve hardly had anything to eat I should have bought something but I
needed a drink so much after a whole week without.
I’ve none of my crochet work to sell either. Haven’t been well enough to do any.
Maybe if I go to my sister’s she’ll help me out. She’s done so much
better than I have. Why couldn’t my life have been like that?
My girl’s in France and my poor little boy’s in that place. If only my
Emily were alive. I think that’s when I really gave up, only twelve she was.
Such a bright girl.
I suppose I should think myself lucky they let me have some tea. They can
see I’m not well but they don’t care. Nobody does.
To Be Continued

Hello Belinda!
Sad stuff!
But somehow she seemed to have been born to sadness!
All the best

My John cared about me. It went well for us, at first, a nice place we had
and a good job he had too. Our girls were born well but then my little Johnnie
was born. I don’t know what went wrong. I should never have started on the drink but it’s too late now. It’s been the ruin
of me
Still got my bruises, what a lot of bother for a bit of soap. She’s doing well
enough, she could have spared it and it wasn’t even for me. There’s the thanks
I get.
Oh I don’t feel well but I’ve still got to get some money together or I won’t be
allowed back here to sleep. I wonder if I ‘ll be well enough to go hopping is she
does send me the boots. The way I feel now I doubt it. I could tell in the Infirmary
there was something in the way they looked at me.
