I am writing to apologize for being absent at your birthday party. I feel extremely sorry about it and I want to explain to you what has happened.
This morning I twisted my ankle while going downstairs and was sent to hospital. The doctor suggested that I have a week’s rest in bed. It’s a great pity that I couldn’t attend your party. Anyway, best wishes to you and once again, please accept my sincere apology.
