    Maybe you mean this for the second sentence:

    I hope you are feelling better when your read this message.

    Just wondering: in this Russian sentence, is there a connotation of :" I hope you are feeling better, when (and because of) reading this letter"?
    Or is it exactly like the English :" I hope you are feeling better, when (at the time of) reading this letter"?


    Ой, голова у меня кружится |-P ...... and my brain hurts too....

    Yes, it's better to say

    "Ya nadeus' ti pochustvuesh' sebya luchshe, chitaya eto pis'mo"

    , so - I hope you are feeling better, when (and because of) reading this letter

    My variant:

    I hope you are feeling better when your read this message.
    (Я) надеюсь, ты уже чувствуешь себя лучше, когда читаешь это письмо.

    Since it's intended for non-native Russian speakers, it's better to write in literate way

    Я надеюсь, ты почувствуешь себя лучше, прочитав это письмо.

    Tx guys - but what would you say if you only want to be polite, and you're saying "I hope you're feeling better by the time you read this letter" (and the letter has nothing whatsoever to do with it - it was the doctor who did it! ) ?

    Ой, голова у меня кружится |-P ...... and my brain hurts too....

    As I already said:
    (Я) надеюсь, ты уже чувствуешь себя лучше, когда читаешь это письмо.
