I am SO glad Frodo's got some help at last, and that Pip will soon be home and taken care of. I would guess that once Pippin's all tucked up and seen to by a healer, Frodo will be wanting to let Merry know.

So VERY good to see you updating again!

Author Reply: So very good to be able to write again, even a little. When I think how I used to be able to turn out a whole chapter or two a day, whilst the wee hobbits were napping... But small steps will reach the end of a journey just the same as large leaps, even if it takes somewhat longer to get there.

Such a helpless feeling, to be on the spot but unprepared for an emergency. I wonder if this affected any of Frodo's future "tramps" around the Shire, before leaving on the Quest? Or if it influenced his preparations for leaving on the Quest itself? Or if his recounting the story of this affair might have affected Merry or Sam in their apparent thoroughness in making preparations to set out away from home, perhaps? (Am I making sense? I am in need of a nap.)

Thanks so much for the encouraging words!
