A ‘take care’ letter is typically written to enquire about a person’s health, to wish him the season’s greetings, and to ask him a few casual and informal questions. These letters are generally written only to maintain a casual contact with an acquaintance, a family member, a distant relative or even somebody you know through a mutual friend. Take care letters are also meant to convey a feeling of friendship or greetings or cheer.
A take care letter reflects the bond shared between the Sender and the Receiver. It is sent because they share a personal relation. They could be suffering from personal grievances, could be upset over some loss or could be maintaining poor health. The take care letter shall provide them the strength to overcome these obstacles of life and also provide them hope. It helps the receiver believe that someone is looking out for them and that someone cares enough to establish contact on such an intimate level.

Hello there!
How are you? I haven’t heard from you for weeks! I hope things are going well on your end. I just thought I’d write and ask how you were.
How are your parents doing? And your brother? His school must be over, yes? He must be enjoying his vacations so much—without a care in the world!
I start at the University this June. Things are hectic, but I’m quite content. I’m going to study Art History and Geology.
I hope you and your family are doing good. Give my love to all. Take care.
Regards,
Kevin

Dear Aashi,
It’s too hard to swallow the fact that you met with an accident day before yesterday. I was really very shocked to find this out from your mother. I hope that you are fine and are getting all kinds of tests done to ensure that nothing bad has happened.
I pray that you are not injured except a few bruises here and there. I was told that even the car is fine except for a few broken windows. Thank God that you are safe and fine. Else, such kind of accidents can prove to be very injurious and even fatal. I really want to meet you but we’ll chat on web cam later on when you are in a better condition. Wish I was there in India to attend to you all the time in the difficult period that you are passing through.
We’ll talk soon; please keep me updated. You need to take rest and please don’t skip the doses of medicine. Take care of your health and yourself.
Your loving friend,
Tiya
