Life Management

5:44 A.M.!
What happened to my alarm!

Cramming morning home time into the small space
Between shock and leaving for work at 6:35 a.m.

A challenge
And then!

Coffee not ready!
Automatic setting failed to automate.

But…..breathe
Heat up green tea
Sit
Read

Morning is my beginning time
Whether a nursing day or a home writing day

Cherished and protected
Maintenance of seizure free status my reward.

Epilepsy doesn’t manage my life
I manage my life around epilepsy
(p.s. 16 years seizure free on February 16!)
