Please could somebody translate this for me as I do not trust machine translation and my Polish is too bad.
Help appreciated.

"Dear M.
I am sorry to tell you that x has gone to prison today for 16 weeks of which he will probably serve half.
He received one of your parcels this morning, and I am waiting for the other to come tomorrow, and I will keep it for him so do not worry about that. The prison is in X, and I will be going to visit.
thinking of you,
all best wishes

Drogi M,
Z przyrością muszę cię poinformować, że x poszedł do więzienia na 16 tygodni. Prawdopodobnie będzie musiał odsiedzieć tylko połowę z tego. Otrzymał jedną z paczek dziś rano a jutro otrzyma drugą. Nie martw sie. Wiezienie jest w X i pojade tam z wizytą.
Myślę o tobie.
Wszystkiego dobrego.

Translation could be improved on but that was asap.

Merged: URGENT TRANSLATION PLEASE: Short letter

please could anyone translate for me ASAP
X is coming out of prison next SUNDAY (10 days) He did not send me a visiting order so I have not been able to visit. I have sent him all of your money but he thinks I have not. Everything takes a long time to arrive at the prison. If he phones you please tell him I am waiting to see him. Also..please could you ask him to phone me . You have the number.
Thanks!

X wychodzi z więzienia w następną niedzielę (za 10 dni). Nie przysłał mi przepustki dla odwiedzających, więc nie miałam możliwości żeby go odwiedzić. Przesłałam mu wszystkie twoje pieniądze, ale on myśli, że nie. Przyjazd do więzienia zabiera dużo czasu. Jeśli zadzwoni proszę cię przekaż mu, że nie mogę doczekać się, aby go zobaczyć. Również czy mogłabyś go poprosić aby do mnie zadzwonił? Masz mój numer.
Dzięki!

I translated Everything takes a long time to arrive at the prison as It takes a long time to arrive at the prison because I don't know a structure with everthing (does it mean the same as with it at the beggining?). I am waiting to see him - does it mean you want to see him or that you would be happy to see him? I've translated the phrase as the latter meaning.
English is my weak point so maybe wait for other answers to check if by any chance I did not misunderstood or twisted something.

If he phones you please tell him I am waiting to see him. Jeśli zadzwoni proszę cię powiedz mu, że czekam, aby się z nim zobaczyć. Instead of: Jeśli zadzwoni proszę cię przekaż mu, że nie mogę doczekać się, aby go zobaczyć.

jail time reduced from 16 weeks to 10 days is not that sad. ;)
