hellyfish

I awoke last night with what appeared to be a jellyfish in my right eye. Had surveillance cameras been installed in my house, what a sight to see...me running around with my eye covered, making an ice pack. I stopped every few seconds to cover up the "non-jellyfish" eye to make sure I was not blind. All i could think of was the Helen Keller unit I teach my freshmen and how if I go blind, I could relate more to the kids from my experience. OY VEY.

Panic breeds wild thought process breeds laughter breeds tears. Trip to the doctor gets me a mandatory day out of school, eye drops and PINK EYE! So, I may skip the HK unit next fall afterall.

  1. . . . and it turned out to be a Hellyfish not a Jellyfish.

  2. My....a lifetime has occurred. Blossomed. Lit up the hemisphere. And disappeared. Losing a child is...well...life-altering. Rest my warrior son, Michael. You fought so hard for so long to live. I miss you more each day...and everything sounds so...cliché.
