I've gotten 2 letters and 1 phone call. I was so glad to hear his voice. He told me he made rpod (not sure what that is but sounds important), but he was very stressed out, told me it was alot harder than he thought it would be. I told him to hang in there, it would get better. It was very hard not to cry because he sounded so stressed. But I am hoping for another letter this week. Hoping it gets better. Can anyone explain what an rpod is?

Erika314, I asked my SR how many of our letters has he received. He was up to October 8th and it was October 14th that he wrote me the answer. So, it looks like their letters are a week behind; (6 or so days). But the one I received from October 14th, last Sunday, was a lot better. I sent him a questionnaire and he answered all the questions. I think that it saved him time on writing/thinking what to write and not stressing him out on time.

I printed off the one here and will be sending it tomorrow. I thought it would be cute! Did your SR mention anything about his birthday? I was thinking about it and wondered what he thought.
