It may be that she will never come to New York and if she comes at all it will be because on the day she gets on the train she feels able to come and wants to come. The reasons are partly financial but chiefly physical. After two automobile accidents in less than a year, she is in no shape to undertake anything that puts a strain on her ... and a trip to New York for the first time in many years would be a major strain. The reason why she has been in bed the past two weeks is the fact that getting the book delivered to you involved the most prolonged strain she has had to undergo in many years. She hasn’t recovered from the injury to her back which she received in the [first] automobile accident and those injuries included injury to the nerves running from the spine at the point where she got the twist. Sitting up for hours at a time, day, after day, over a period of weeks, typing, editing the manuscript, handling heavy reference books, etc. was about the worst possible thing she could have done. She stuck it out until the job was finished, except for checking the typewriter copy, correcting errors, etc., which was work I could do under her supervision and then her ailments got her down and the doctor ordered her to bed.

The doctor thinks she may yet have to have an operation, one which she might have had a couple of months ago except for the book and her whole concern is to get herself rested up and postpone the operation at least until after the proofs are ready and the job is finished. It won’t help her resting a bit if she thinks Macmillan is making plans based on her coming to New York when she may not be able to come....
