Write a letter to your brother telling him about Mother’s illness

My dear brother Shane,

It has been a long time since you haven’t visited home. I haven’t heard from you in a long time, and I don’t believe any of us in the family have. I hope you are doing well.

I’m writing to inform you about Mother. She is extremely ill, and has been hospitalized for the past few days. We don’t know what will happen in the future, and for now all we can do is be there for her at her side.

Please Shane, I request that you come, and visit Mother. We don’t know how much time we have left. Perhaps when she finally sees you, her health will take a turn for the better. But for now, the least you can do is come visit, and be by her side, so that no matter what happens, she will be surrounded by people who love her.

I eagerly await your response, Shane.

Sincerely,
Ella
