Of course, you must feel anxious for your uncle. He will make a full recovery, we're told, but it will take some time.
Unfortunately, with the train leaving in the morning, I'm not sure it would be possible for you to visit. Nor, my dear, I'm sorry to say, should I think he would much wish to be seen, in his current state. No, I don't think he'd want you to see him at present. I am comforted by the knowledge that his appearance is worse than the actual damage, of course.
But I know he always looks forward to your letters, and to know that he is in your thoughts. As does Draco.
Thank you for thinking to write, this of all nights, when you must be filled with anticipation for another school year and preoccupied with packing lists and last-minute items for your trunks, and wondering what will happen in your next term.
Do write to him, when you can. I'll see that he receives it as soon as he's able. His responses may be a bit delayed while he recovers the strength to hold a quill for long - but then, you know your uncle. He has never been one to stay in his sickbed for long. If it could be avoided, he would never be in one at all!
And of course I shall tell him you asked about him, Pansy. Dear. Just now, as you say, I've much to attend to and - well, it is a busy time for us all.
Take care of yourself, dear. I'm sure we'll speak again soon.
