My favourite alternative to 'Hello' right now is probably 'Hugs'.

Bonjour!

I'm so sorry this happened to your family but I'm happy your mom is still here. My ex-partner attempted suicide a little over a year ago and it was a traumatic experience, to say the least. I'm glad you're able to write about it. I'm sure that helps you process it.

My word for you is "healing". ❤️
