My Name is John Merrick
After what seemed like an eternity I have finally returned to the comfort of the home that my good friend Dr. Fredrick Treves generously gave to me. I truly wish this be the last time I escape Mr.Bytes' abuse, for the past few weeks were hell all over again. A part of me wishes I had died that cold night in the monkey cage. I could never thank my dear friends enough for helping me return to London. My experiences have been unspeakable, but when Dr. Frederick Treves hugged me so sincerely I felt my worries dissolve. He was kind and caring as always, I wish he didn't blame himself for what happened to me. He is a great man with such potential and I acknowledge that he might not be able to cure me, but he has certainly done his absolute best in caring for me. I almost feel in place here, it's an amazing feeling. I am so relieved to be back... I look forward to finishing my cathedral since it was destroyed by a vulgar crowd. I only wish others could see me not as an elephant, not as an animal, but rather a man and most importantly a human being. I very much appreciate those that do, those that have true kindness in their hearts, those who are not swayed so easily by the public notion. I've grown tired from a long week, so I shall retire for the day.
