Dear Neslihan,

I wanna let you know that I won’t be able to attend to our planned meeting on May 15th, no matter how excited I was for seeing you. You’ve already known that I’m the man of my word, but unexpected matter came up which I need to take care of unfortunately. My grandmother had a heart attack yesterday, and her situation is still foggy. Due to I am being her only relative alive, I’ve to accompany her in hospital if she needs anything.

How about postponing our meeting and letting me put things right this time? Are you gonna be available on next weekend or so? Additionally, would you prefer keeping the same activity that we had already planned for this week or trying completely new plan? I’m open to any options you would suggest.

Please accept my apologies and let me know about your availability for rescheduling.

Warm regards,

Furkan
