## Opinion text

BOB McCOY, Justice,
dissenting.
I respectfully dissent. I do not believe that the Legislature intended that an “injury” encompass the symptoms of an “ordinary disease of life,” as has been found present here, any more than those from a *887 common cold, a cold sore (a viral infection), or athlete’s foot (a fungal infection).
