    Dear Mr. Marten,

    I am writing to inform that I shall not be in office for a period of two weeks and shall be on a leave of absence starting 12th January 2012.

    As you are well aware of my condition, I will be undergoing a minor brain surgery on 13th January 2012, which will require at least two weeks of complete bed rest.

    As I am involved in some mega projects these days, I have handed over my responsibilities to my back up, Mr. Tom. He has the capability to handle the projects without any problem.

    I shall rejoin office and resume my duties on 27th January 2012.

    Thanking you.

    Yours sincerely,

    Andrew Brown
