Dear Mr. Shelley,
I am writing to ask for leave of absence for a period starting from March 1st.
The reason for the request is the recent accident suffered by my grandfather. He is currently in intensive care in the hospital. As his only grandson, I have an obligation to be with him in his hour of need. He is in a stable condition but the following days are critical. If all goes well, I would expect to return within a week but, if the worst happens, I will advise you and request an extension.
I thank you in anticipation of your approval which, I fully understand, will be on the basis of unpaid leave.
Yours sincerely,
Li Ming
尊敬的謝利先生:
我寫(xiě)便條是想向您請(qǐng)幾天假,從3月1日開(kāi)始請(qǐng)。
我請(qǐng)假的原因是我的祖父最近出了車(chē)禍?,F(xiàn)在他住在醫(yī)院的重癥監(jiān)護(hù)病房。我是他唯一的孫子,有義務(wù)在他最需要的時(shí)候陪著他。他現(xiàn)在狀況穩(wěn)定,但接下來(lái)的幾天很關(guān)鍵。如果一切順利,我估計(jì)一周之內(nèi)應(yīng)該會(huì)回去上班。如果不順利,我會(huì)告訴您并申請(qǐng)延長(zhǎng)請(qǐng)假天數(shù)。
希望您能予以準(zhǔn)假,我在此表示感謝。我完全理解這將是無(wú)薪假。
您真誠(chéng)的,
李明
