Ok Paddy!

Here is a poem I wrote last night by looking at others for inspiration & experiences of my own!

Hope you all like it : )

PLEASE DON'T JUDGE ME.

I would like you to understand

Without too much sympathy

Please just be there if needed

Just try to listen to me.

I get so tired & fatigued

My body doesn’t feel like my own

My body aches & hurts

I try not to complain & moan.

I find it hard to concentrate

My words get muddled & slurred

I’ll get what we call ‘brain fog’

Often I can’t find the right words.

I may get bad headaches

My hands may tremor

I’ll often go of balance & sway

My right side a different colour.

My body doesn’t always respond

My memory Isn’t too good

This causes embarrassment

This disorder nickname is ‘Sticky blood.’

Please don’t judge me

As one day I wont need a stick

But then when I do…..you’ll ask….

‘What’s up? you don’t look sick!’
