Writing Assessment – Task #1

In 300-400 words, write a formal letter to a work supervisor to request a leave of absence 

Dear Jasiminka: 

I am Angela Yuan Mei, who is the International Language Mandarin Simplified Program Instructor of Grade 1-3 on Day 2 of Ryerson Community Public School. I'm writing to ask for absence from  March 21th to April 20th because I have to go back to China.

Last mid-night, my father has got heart attack in China.. He was sent to hospital by ambulance. He is rescued in ICU now. My mom and my sister have been contacting me intimately.  They asked for me that I must be ready for going back to China whenever necessary and demand.

I have known my father's situation is so worse from the Chinese specialist through the video device online. He said their specialists group are trying their best to figure out the effective way to rescue his life. 

Now I feel very sad and worried for my father. I have to ask for absence if you considered. Would you please respond me asap? I really appreciate for your consideration! Thanks a lot!

 God bless you!

your faithfully

Angela
