Dear Sir,

I am writing this to inform you that I would not be able to join your company because there is an emergency in my house.

As you are well informed about my previous job which, due to some emergency I would not be able to join. My uncle has been hospitalized yesterday due to difficulty in breathing so there is no one to look after my uncle business. In such a serious situation I want to support my family.

I realize this will be inconvenient to you, but I hope you will understand my situation and allow me to work in your organization in few weeks.

I am looking forward to work in your organization and grab the opportunities to learn and collect experiences.

Your’s Sincerely,

Rabina
