Dear Ms. Supervisor,

Please accept my resignation from my position, effective June 1, 2011. As you know, my son is suffering from a serious illness, and is going to require frequent visits to a specialist in another city. I will be unable to fulfill the commitments of my position here for the foreseeable future.

Please let me know if there is anything I can do to ease the transition in any way.

Sincere Regards,
