Dear Emily,

After any number of false starts, I am convinced there is no conventional form for writing this letter. It is not a thank you, nor is it an apology. More, so much more than that, it is a plea for your forgiveness and understanding. To write a thank you for saving my life, to apologize on paper for waiting almost three years to say that thank you, would be an injustice to both of us.

I know very little of what actually happened to me during the hours after the accident, but I have learned the name of the person who took me in, kept me from freezing to death, and then never let herself be known. I'm certain you had your own reasons for what you did, but please don't deny me the opportunity now to express my gratitude and even my admiration.

Much of the past two and a half years has been a blur to me, but I am at least now sufficiently recovered to resume my career and try to take some control over my life. With the help of a therapist, I have made some strides in learning how to live the life of a man rather than merely that of a musician. He has recommended that even at this late date I try to reconstruct the days I lost that Christmas week, by returning to the scenes of the memories I have buried. In that effort, I have been to Washington and to the lodge where a party was held, a party I apparently attended but still cannot remember. I have made plans to visit the site of the accident. I understand that your home is nearby. Would you consider allowing me to visit you, talk with you; and could you find it in your heart to let me try to remember what happened that day and night I was with you?

Please understand that if this is something you would rather not do, I will respect your wishes. You should know that I do have some memory of you. At least I believe it to be your face I have seen in my dreams, your voice I have heard. I picture you kneeling next to me in the snow. I see you sitting near an open fire, watching over me. Is that you, Emily, or just someone I have imagined?

Please accept my thanks in advance for even considering my request. Take all the time you need to respond. I have waited this long without even attempting to contact you. I can certainly allow you as much time as you need to make your decision.

All my best,

Stani Moss
