<<I’ve got too much to do already. Shouldn’t put things off so long. Not even sure I can do it, or should. Damn heart problems. Maybe I can hire the Peterson boy to come out and fill it for me.>>
Ouch! My heart goes out to Jon, that poor little boy! Still there is an elephant in the cornfield in this story and that is Jonathan Kent's poor health. Martha may be the family's heart, but Jonathan is the head and hands. He is the only male figure in Jon's life since Clark is on New Krypton. Uncles Perry and Jimmy are many states away. What happens to the farm, to the family and to Jon if his grandfather passes away?
Clark you need to get home... pronto!
