7-month résumé gap, advice? - first time posting

My résumé shows a gap from a layoff and some health issues. I am not sure how much to explain. Did anyone get past it?

I was hired after a 7-month gap. The manager said the skills test mattered more than the dates.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
