Dear Peter，
I'm writing to thank you for your timely help giving to my mother when she was in trouble．
My mother told me that when she was riding in the street on last Monday，the car cut in suddenly．That made her fall off her bike and hurt her leg serious，but the driver didn't stop．When you saw what had happened，you came to give him a hand at once．You helped my mother to get a taxi and take her to the nearest hospital．When the doctor said my mother's leg broken，you phoned my father．Therefore，before my father got to the hospital，you had left．My mother is now on a good condition and she may come home next week．Thanks so much for your helps．
Yours sincerely，
Li Hua．
