Another morning another day

Another morning, another day
How will he be today?
Anxious, edgy, angry, depressed or worse?
Please no psychosis today

How can we help?
When feeling helpless ourselves
This relentless illness
Seizures, voices and hallucinations.

Keep him busy
Read, read, read and we will find a cure
He should get more sleep
He should exercise more

Doctors visit
One of many
Something new this time?
Please no anger or seizures in the waiting room

Doctor, Psychiatrist, Psychologist, Neurologist.
One or all of you must know
Give us some precious time
Give us some more precious hope

Medication or poison?
Help or hindrance?
The cure or the cause?
Pain or relief?

Hospital!
Explain it all again
Please let it be a quick recovery
Perhaps they will find a clue?

Don't let it consume me?
Am I doing enough?
I feel like giving up
Must keep strong

Another morning, another day
He is well today
Caring and kind
Just like it was meant to be

Thank you Lodigiana - the sickness of a child whether adult or infant is the hardest thing I have ever been through in life. There has been improvement but sometimes it is sunny and sometimes grey.
