Orange-Red (Epilepsy)

What,

I have,

May not,

Affect,

Me mentally,

But,

My condition,

Still effects,

My brain,

It,

Can,

Happen,

At any time,

Day or night,

If I’m stressed,

Or I’ve not had,

Enough sleep,

When,

I wake up,

Or if,

There is a flashing,

Light,

Sometimes,

There,

Is no warning,

Sometimes,

I can feel,

It,

Even,

Sense,

It,

Rising,

From,

My stomach,

All,

I know,

Is,

The orange-red,

Glow,

Greets,

Me,

Every time,

Almost,

Like,

A blanket,

Ready to be,

Crawled,

Into,

The worst seizure,

Is called,

Status epilepticus,

Where,

The seizure,

Can,

Last a long,

Time,

The person,

Doesn’t regain,

Consciousness,

Between,

The fits,

Each seizure,

Causes,

The body,

To jerk and shake,

Others,

Cause problems,

Like loss of,

Awareness,

Or unusual sensations,

The other seizures,

Have names too,

Like Aura’s,

Complex partial (focal) seizure,

Tonic-clonic seizure,

Absences,

Myoclonic seizures,

Clonic seizures,

Tonic seizures,

And,

Lastly,

Atonic seizures,

I wish,

I could remember,

What one,

The doctors,

Said I have,

But shock,

Along,

With the medication,

Dulled,

The memory,

They said,

The seizures,

May stop,

Over time,

I don’t think,

So,

I can feel,

The,

Orange-red,

Glow,

Pulsing,

Behind,

My eyes,

I’ll stick,

To the medication,

Until,

It gets too much,

To handle,

Then,

I’ll consider,

The other options
