Third time around

I have now had three seizures.  Nine months apart.  What kind of a disorder manifests every nine months, punctuated with no driving for six months each time?  At least this time I got to have it at home sitting in my favorite chair.  No public spectacle or Emergency Room.  This time I knew enough to call.

This time I knew it was coming
Next to the blueberries
In the grocery store,
After the aisle
Of gourmet cheese.
I knew
I should call for a ride home.
Next to the blueberries,
A turn around the pile of navel oranges,
After the gourmet cheese,
This time
I knew enough
To call.
