Work emails

I work in a bakery, and we get some weird people emailing and calling us. Here is a particularly interesting string of emails from a woman in Georgia who claims that doctors specifically prescribed cakes from our bakery to her friend who is suffering from cancer and that her friend will die if she doesn't get the cakes. Here they are in chronological order. I should point out that all of the emails come from an email address with the same name as that of the sick friend. Also, one of the emails says that some cakes would "tickle her to death". Hey, I thought that's what we were tying to avoid! And another stated that the doctors "don't care what she eats as along as szhe eats something". I guess that means "something from your bakery specifically, of all of the thousands of bakeries in the country". Enjoy!

Dear xxxxx,
Marry Christmas and Happy New Year!! Well, I am very sad this Christmas. I will not be able to order from you guys. My disabilty got cut out, and I have no food in my house. I have not had any food since Sunday afternoon. This computer is my only link to the outside world. I can not drive due to my eyesight. I have no family. I have a brother, but he is in a federal prision. I have no one to turn too not a soul. My church family never calls or comes by to check on me. I just live 1/4 mile from my church in a studio apartment. Thank God, I do not have to pay rent. I am watching this house for the winter while the family is traveling over seas. I haven't heard from them since the end of October. They will not be home till April 2008. I would love to have something like cookies or some brownies without nuts to eat on, but I have no money to buy them. I pray that all of you havea wonderful Holiday and a great 2008.
Sincerely,
xxxxx

Hi xxxxx,
Thank you for your e-mail. I am terribly sorry to hear about the worsening medical condition of your friend xxxxx. It does sound like a very difficult situation for you both to be going through. However, as her health appears to be so unstable, we are hesitant to send her baked goods that do not provide many nutrients, which are necessary to bring xxxxx back to good health.

We do wish you both the best and hope that xxxxx's condition improves soon.

xxxxx
