Fighting through injury

I am sorry I missed my last column. I had a bad fall Easter Sunday. I went to the emergency room. The only damage seemed to be a cut on my hand. They put 9 stitches on the wound. Since then I have had bruises show up on my chest and it is very sore. I am scheduled for a chest x-ray on May 22. I haven’t been out much for the past two weeks, so don’t have much to report. I have only been to church, so that is the news I have to report.
