Subject: Casual Leave of Absence
John, I would like to know if I could ask for a casual leave of absence from March 23 to I received a letter from my parents, who are both over 70, telling me that a big flood took place at my home village, causing serious damage to my house. As the only son of my parents, I should of back to assess the situation, and help them to get over these difficulties. Though I cannot stay at home for too long a time, I should at least make arrangements for repair work. I believe my relatives in the village and my neighbors will also come to help. Financially I have no will call you at 1:. or you can call me at any Mr/Ms Jiang
I was unable to come to 1st and 2nd period to the rain yesterday, I was wet and had temperature at night. The doctor adviced me to rest for several days and after my recovery, I will attend school as soon as possible.
I am sincerely sorry about the inconvenience. However, I would like to have your permission. Also, afterwards I would phone you and theres the certificate by the doctor.
