SIR - In the bleak midwinter which June represents, it was so encouraging to read(T&A, June 30) of such inspiring young people as the remarkable Letticia Flerin.
When my mum was 16 she too had to look after her four younger brothers and sisters as they'd sadly lost their mother.
At 94 she's still lumbered with me! Frailty thy name is woman' said Hamlet - how wrong is that?
