Dear Sister,

Please tell Mom and Dad that I was contacted last night by some men in black hoods with upside down flag lapel pins.

I don’t know where they are taking me but it is getting warmer with each hour in this claustrophobic van.

I hear seagulls. Ocean waves.

Guantanamo!?

Help me, my intermingled Donna-Luisa!
