I understand that you're contacting government departments and other support organizations. While the are helping Freddie with advice, education, and somewhere to stay, we will continue to help him with his health problems. This boy has suffered terribly since he left his country. He has been badly affected by the terrifying things that have happened to him, including the attack last week. Freddie is exhausted and in extreme pain, but the physical pain will be easier to take care of than the painful memories. Sincerely, Dr. Lucy Spencer Freddie's diary February 7th I do not know what's happening to me. Nothing seems real. There are too many sad and frightening thoughts inside my head, I can not let them all out. I can not tell people. Dr. Spencer told me I should write things down in this book instead. She says it will help me get better. How can writing make me feel better? And writing is painful with a broken arm!
