ALS signed “Ron,” one page both sides, 6.5 x 8.5, presidential seal embossed personal letterhead, February 5. Letter to Dolores Ballachino. In full, “Thank you for your good wishes on my birthday and thank Paul. Nancy says she thanks you both also. We’re sorry to learn of your ill health. You are definitely in our thoughts and prayers. As for your question about how I appear to stay healthy I’m taking treatments for a very painful arm. I thought it might be some strain or wound from things I do at the ranch. I was wrong. I have some kind of bursitis - an inflammation of the tendons in my shoulder. I’m happy to say the regular treatments 2 or 3 times a week are reducing my discomfort and will shortly have me back to normal. You asked me for a tip. I can only tell you I have a regular exercise routine, I still ride and I talk regularly to the man upstairs asking for his help. I hadn’t counted the years we’ve kept in touch with each other and I’m pleased to know it’s coming up a half century. I hope we both continue this contact as long as we’re around. Best Regards to Paul and again my gratitude to you.” Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, addressed in Reagan’s hand and bearing his Los Angeles address and a pre-printed free franked signature. In fine condition, with a a central horizontal mailing fold and slight show through from text on reverse. COA John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and R&R COA.
