I’d Love To, But…

Last night while you were playing trivia I was having a Grand Mal Epileptic seizure. The whole day was crappy. Swimmy. Loopy. Hazy. I couldn't remember what I was supposed to do. It was morning. That much I knew. I got out of the shower and I walked around the bedroom naked. What was I supposed to do? I couldn’t remember what drawer to open, or even if I was supposed to be opening a drawer. I desperately knew I was supposed to wear something; I gave up and put on a clean night gown. My thinking was “I just got out of the shower, and at least the night gown is clean".

These double exposure photos were taken with intention. To tell a story and represent my mind following a seizure. It takes a few days to fully recover from a seizure and these photos were taken in that period with my husband at the wheel of our car while I'm shooting out the window. It is a soothing and creative way back to normal.

Because of my unexpected reoccurring seizures I’d love to, but…
