Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA)

transient ischemic attack                                                   

ever heard of that?                                                                   

a “mini stroke” they call it –

but what a long name!

a blockage in the brain

causes great pain –

your vision is blurred , or even doubled

and your speech becomes troubled -

your memory deserts you

like so many others have done -

you confuse those around you

can barely walk, let alone run.

 

anticoagulants are the prescribed fix -

nothing like rat poison to

add to the mix….

 

but am i still me?

and who will ever want me now???

 

** sorry for the continuous pity party – promise to get over it soon!!
