What Ailed Us

I’m a tangle of emotions following a dramatic week of life and motherhood—much of which I don’t feel at liberty to describe here. But I’ll do so in this vague form:

Bronchitis
Shivering, sweating, sleeping, hacking—
days and days, short of breath.

Stage Fright
Wanting the part, dreading the part—
disappointment, embarrassment, relief.

Ear Infection
Shooting pain, crying out, intermittent dozing—
“I just miss my friends so much.”

Grace. Kindness. Medicine.

New Week!
