(Request letter for transfer of job location due to illness/health problem.)

Dear Sir/Madam,

As you are well aware, I have been feeling unwell since the last few months. I am currently staying at a rented apartment away from my family members. Most of the time due to lack of time I could not cook myself and hence, I ended up eating out at some hotels. Due to this, I have started having some gastric problems as diagnosed by the doctor. It is advisable for me to stay with my family members so that I can have proper homemade foods, which will avoid causing such unwanted disease. I hope you will appreciate the situation I am put in. Hence, I am hereby requesting you to transfer my job posting to any of the branch offices at the city of ________ (where my family members reside). I would be grateful for your kind consideration in this matter.
