Re: Post card Translation help please
Dear Cousin
With great pleasure I received your letter. I am pleased to hear that you’re enjoying good health, along with your family. I can tell you the same for us. Here things are still going badly. A kilo of pasta costs 125 lira, a kilo of bread 100. We hope that things get back to normal soon. Dear Sebbastiana, now I am 76 years of age, and there are many things to do in the month of May. (I don’t understand what the next sentence means) --- I have to do 20 rays? to galvanize/solder? where I work, and the bad thing is it costs 20,000 lire.--- I along with my daughter and son send kisses dearly to all of you and wish you a blessed Easter.
Your dear cousin, Giacomo Messina
Give my regards to your brothers and sisters

Cara Sebbastiana ormai sono 76 anni di età, quindi ci ò poco da fare (= ho poco da vivere).
Nel mese di Maggio devo farmi 20 raggi (= 20 sessioni di raggi X) per causticare (= cicatrizzare) dove avevo il male, e costa 20 mila lire, pasienza(?) (= bisogna rassegnarsi).
