task achievement
The letter successfully addresses all parts of the task, but there are a few language inaccuracies (e.g., "in best of the spirits" should be "in the best of spirits" and "suffering with a few health issues" should be "suffering from a few health issues").
coherence cohesion
Each paragraph deals with a single idea, but try to add more linking words for smoother transitions (e.g., "Additionally," instead of "In the end").
task achievement
Ensure the tone remains formal throughout. Phrases like "which are bothering me a lot" can be rephrased to sound more formal, such as "which have been causing significant discomfort."
coherence cohesion
The greeting and closing are appropriate and polite.

The response is complete, clearly explaining the reason for rescheduling, offering another date, and requesting information about the interview.
