ALS signed “Diana, x,” one page both sides, 5.5 x 7, personal 'Kensington Palace' letterhead, June 4, 1991. Handwritten letter to Mrs. J. Woodward, whom Diana calls “Ivy,” in full: “I was so concerned to hear that you are in hospital – your friend Shirley wrote to me which thank God she did, as I’d never have known. I am thinking of you constantly & you’re in my prayers throughout the day. Keep strong Ivy, you’re a very special lady & much adored by me for one! Fondest love to you & John.” In fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, hand-addressed by Diana.
Diana met and befriended Ivy Woodward in September 1990, when the former was visiting Prince Charles, who had been hospitalised for a broken arm at the same hospital as Woodward’s son, Dean, who lay in a coma following a motorbike accident. Four weeks after Diana’s first visit, Dean regained consciousness and, by December 1990, he was well enough to go home.
