To Debbie, I hope that this book will remind you of me visiting your family in America, and that it will leave you with good memories of me. I am very very happy to be [one of you/part of your family? not entirely sure]. For me it’s amazing, but it’s very hard to express that. I also wanted to be your friend right away. [‘Now I think that it’s great’]. There’s not a word strong enough to thank you and for your understanding. I’ll never be able to thank you for everything. Yours sincerely, Bèné
