I'm writing now, shortly after my 101st birthday, to request that you
support Swiss psychiatrist Dr. Peter Gasser's proposed study of LSD-
assisted psychotherapy in subjects with anxiety associated with life-
threatening illness. This will become the first LSD-assisted
psychotherapy study in over 35 years.

I hope you will help in the transformation of my problem child into a
wonder child.

Sincerely,

A. Hofmann

Dear Rick,

Thank you for all you do for my problem child. I am pleased to add
whatever I can do from my part.

I learned much from your great letter, to do things after waiting for
the right moment, how clever and careful you organize and do your
work.

I do hope that my letter to Steve Jobs corresponds to your
expectation, especially what regards the choice of the writing paper.
[Doblin had asked Hofmann to use his personal letterhead. It's not
what you're thinking.] I believe that I followed your prescription.

Hopefully Dr. Gasser will be successful with his request.

Cordially -

Albert

A fun read! Thank you...
