TLS, one page, 7.25 x 10.5, personal letterhead, September 17, 1976. Letter to Mary Kuchinsky, responding to her letter on the welfare of Pat Nixon, who suffered a stroke at their La Casa Pacifica home on July 7, 1976. In full: “This is just a note to tell you how deeply touched Mrs. Nixon and I were by your expression of concern with regard to her recent illness. Excellent medical attention, plus her courage and determination, have contributed greatly to the splendid progress she has made toward full recovery. But I am confident that your spiritual remembrance, and others offered in her behalf, as well as the prayers of people all over the world, have helped enormously in enabling her to come through this difficult crisis even better and more rapidly than the doctors thought would be possible when she entered the hospital. We join in this expression of our heartfelt and grateful appreciation.” In very fine condition. When Pat Nixon suffered a stroke in the summer of 1976, it resulted in the paralysis of her entire left side. Physical therapy eventually enabled her to regain all movement. Nixon said that her recovery was ‘the hardest thing I have ever done physically.’
