Ho Chi Minh City, on ...th, ...month, ...year...
Dear Lan,
Today, as I arrived at school, Hân informed me that Lan's mother had recently passed away. I am truly shocked and deeply sympathize with Lan.
Dear Lan! Since you moved to live in Đà Lạt with your family, we haven't had the chance to meet. I understand losing a mother is the greatest pain in your life. It must feel like the world is crumbling beneath your feet, doesn't it? I also feel very saddened. When I heard the news, I cried uncontrollably, and everyone in our class cried along. I can't imagine how you will be now. I remember the essay you wrote in third grade about your mother, which the teacher read to the whole class. I know you are a girl who loves and cherishes your mother deeply. But now, she is no longer with us, and this loss cannot be compensated in any way.
But Lan! What's lost is lost. Please regain your calmness, your courage to overcome this painful sorrow. Believe that beside you, there are good friends always supporting and sharing with you. Your classmates are also writing letters to inquire and encourage you. I believe my little, charming girlfriend will have enough strength to overcome this.
Wishing Lan strength and good health.
Lan's close friend - Ly Na

District 10, on December 29th, year...
Dear Uncle Sáu!
Yesterday, I heard Dad mention that you called home, reporting the news of Grandpa's serious illness. I am deeply concerned, dear Uncle.
By the way, as Dad went back to the hometown with Grandpa, I'm sending a few lines along with our family.
Grandpa is elderly, so when he gets sick, it's not easy to recover. It's really a pity for Grandpa. His chronic bronchitis requires long-term treatment, right? Moreover, he is reluctant to go to the hospital, making it challenging for the doctors to monitor and difficult for you to take care of him. Please try to persuade Grandpa to actively follow the treatment plan; it will help him recover faster.
I hope Grandpa recovers quickly. Sending my regards to Grandpa, I've asked Dad to take care of you, remind you to take medicine regularly, and adjust your diet accordingly.
The letter is getting long, so I'll stop here. I promise to come and spend a long time with you and Uncle this summer.
Wishing you a speedy recovery, Grandpa.
Your nephew

Hải Phòng, on February 10th, year......
Dear Grandma!
Yesterday, upon receiving Uncle Lợi's letter informing us of Grandma's illness, our entire family was deeply worried. I, on behalf of the family, am writing this letter to inquire about Grandma's health and wish her a speedy recovery.
Dear Grandma, how are you feeling now? Have you been able to eat? Have you had the chance to read a book? Last month, when Dad visited, you were in good health, and now you're unwell. Is it because of the changing weather or the inevitable effects of old age, Grandma?
Mom, Dad, and all of us miss you dearly! Occasionally, Dad shares stories of the past when Grandpa went off to fight, and you, resiliently, took care of the entire family. Throughout your life, you've toiled for your children and grandchildren. Listening to Dad's tales, we become even more appreciative of your immense sacrifices.
Dear Grandma, with utmost respect.
Due to work commitments far from home, my parents couldn't be close enough to take care of my grandmother regularly. Now that she's unwell, our entire family is deeply concerned. I'm at a loss on what to do, just hoping for her health and longevity. Regardless, my parents are rearranging their schedules to visit her. I share a piece of good news with her – I've just scored another perfect 10 in Math, Grandma!
I'll put down my pen now, wishing you, both uncles, and all my siblings good health! I hope to visit you all during the upcoming Tet holiday.
Best regards
Your Grandchild
