“Adini is very poorly, every minute we expect a premature birth, and even then recovery is impossible (tears prevent me from writing). Our only consolation now lies in the thought that nothing is impossible with God. But this is our only hope.”
— Grand Duchess, later Empress, Maria Alexandrovna of Russia on her sister-in-law, Grand Duchess Alexandra Nikolaevna, who was terminally ill and pregnant.
