Explain a missed day or upcoming absence because of illness, surgery or a medical appointment. Written by you for your employer or school — attach a doctor's note when you have one.
I am writing to let you know that I was unable to work from Monday, October 26 through Wednesday, October 28, 2026, due to a medical condition that required rest and treatment.
I have attached a note from my healthcare provider confirming these dates. I am feeling better and expect to return to my regular schedule on Thursday, October 29.
I am sorry for any inconvenience my absence caused, and I will catch up on any missed work as soon as I am back. Please let me know if you need anything else from me.
Thank you for your understanding.
