Tonks:
Are any of you suggesting that this really isn't DD?  Because I 
wondered a tiny bit about that when he is appearing so vain. He is 
normally a very humble man, but throughout this book he keeps 
telling Harry how smart he (DD) is. That doesn't fit DD's 
personality.

Also the hand.  Which hand is it that LV has that is not his own? 
Could it be LV in DD? All in all, I think that these are just red 
herrings. (I have to accept the fact that DD is really dead. And I 
am clinging to hope here. But I must *face* the reality. DD is dead.)

But back to the handwriting. It could be because his writing hand is 
messed up as you said. And it can also be because when a person is 
weak and near death their handwritting does change. I have seen this 
myself. It might have a shakyness to it. It will not have the same 
fullness of life that it normally has.
