.Rewrite this letter from Chris to his friend sue

,Dear sue
Sorry I haven’t written, I was feeling unwell. I think I was resisting a cold. Work was making me feel nervous and unhappy, and I think it was probably making me tired. The good news is that I spent a week in the mountains. The fresh air made me feel much healthier and happier. I recovered from my mystery illness and am feeling great again. I hope you’re well and happy. I’ll write again soon
,Best wishes
Chris
