On living with pain
Sir: That was an inspiring article on pain by Kenneth Allsop (13 September). Neither mawkish nor braggy (I quote him), and without a trace of self-pity despite his many years of disability. It is a counsel of perfection that `one's body should not be felt,' but he seems to have achieved this in large measure, in the face of tremendous odds. I salute him.
