Letter from Regina "Gigi" to Giulia Kortischoner, 1946-10-09
Regina "Gigi" is a polio friend that Giulia Kortischoner met in Bad Ragaz who lost her parents in the war. Gigi writes to Giulia that she apologizes for taking so long to get Giulia's suitcases to her. She also congratulates Giulia on getting a job at the Rockefeller Institute and says biochemistry is the best possible field she could end up in. Gigi urges Giulia to write to Miss Wetter, whom Giulia lived with while in Zurich, because she never did and Miss Wetter feels Giulia is ungrateful and unfaithful for this. Gigi also talks to Giulia about her newest admirer and says Felix Sachs, her ex-boyfriend, has been very understanding. She also mentions school and Felix's studies.
