SUBJECT: Bone regrowth and nose replacement surgery.

Dear Healer

I am a magician devoted to the upliftment of wizard-kind since ages. Till recently, my quest for supreme glory was proceeding on an exponential scale. Unfortunately, I met with an accident on a mission for immortality. This has resulted in losing my nose. I feel insulted and laughed upon in wizarding circles. I believe your establishment has the necessary resources to relieve me of this mishap.

I would like to inquire about the bone re-growing procedure and the accompanying hassles for the complex spell-work. I would be grateful if you furnish me with details regarding the time required for the same. Also, will it be possible to finish the process away from St. Mungo’s? I am a very busy person and I prefer to travel a lot. I am willing to pay extra for the same.

I guarantee safe passage to anyone who helps me. I have enclosed a list of incentives so that the red-tape is cut short Failure to reply will result in a visit from Bellatrix Lestrange. I hope to hear from you soon. Thank You.

Yours Truly

V. Mort

Encl: 1) Threats in case of refusal

2) Details of relatives around the country.

PS: The Gaunt House address is just a façade. Your owl will find me and won’t return. Nagini needs food after all. Apologies.
