“My son,” someone said with my voice, not me, someone else. “My son is having … just had a seizure.”
It’s odd what the brain thinks during trauma. This isn’t an emergency, it told me, your husband won’t even believe what you’re describing. You know what this is, it will be over in a second, and you’re in your nightgown, for heaven’s sake.
“Every time he inhales, say the word ‘now’,” the dispatcher instructed, slowly, as if I were a very young child. They told me someone would be there soon, told me to unlock the door, to turn the lights on. My oldest son came in, his dad on the phone. I got dressed, packed the diaper bag, waited with my child who was either unconscious or exhausted and sleeping — I still don’t know which.aren’t usually serious. We could drive him to the hospital ourselves. We did drive ourselves there, twice in one day.
Now, I can’t stop the terror that existed outside me, hovering, surrounding me, terror I didn’t feel at the time. I saw it in my mind and studied it with distanced curiosity.
