Overall Feedback

The letter addresses all the bullet points but lacks coherence and cohesion. Grammar and vocabulary usage are adequate but could be improved for better clarity and formality. The tone is inconsistent with the semi-formal requirement.

Dear Adam,
Hello, mate. Please, my apology, I cannot attend your festival celebration. As you know, I live with my grandma and no one takes care of her, furthermore, she is in a hospital for a serious illness. For the next four days, I actually have to be with her because she needs me, I am looking for a new nanny to take care of her, I would really appreciate it if you can find me one.
Mate, I am so happy for you today, congratulations and I wish for a good luck and
bright
future for you. I am waiting to see you in formal attire but, unfortunately, this happens. I would suggest for a next week meeting in the park near the valley. Please let me know if you are available, we can still delay this meeting if you can't. See you around, dude.
Your supporter,
Beautiful Dania
