So I suffer from hypotension (where your blood pressure is unusually low) which causes me to be dizzy, feel sick a lot and sometimes faint (fainting doesn't happen to much). Some days are better than others and as long as I eat plenty and drink enough I'm usually ok, but I had a bad day yesterday and felt dizzy all day and fainted twice. So that inspired this. Enjoy... I guess 🤷🏼‍♀️

For as long as I can remember I've struggled with passing out, feeling dizzy and sick. Arthur being my oldest brother took me to the doctors with our aunt Polly after I kept passing out. I was told my blood pressure was low and that's why I had been fainting. Some days are better than others, but today has been terrible. It started from the moment I got up this morning...

I groan waking up to the bright daylight outside, my head feeling fuzzy as usual but I'll be fine once I have a drink. Slowly I sit up and swing my legs over the edge of the bed. It was Charlie's birthday yesterday so all of us stayed over at Tommy's house (much to his despair). Tommy wouldn't let Isaiah and I sleep in the same bed because in his words "I'll be dambed if you get pregnant out of marriage while under my roof" and so our rooms are at the opposite ends of the house. Slowly I stand up, my vision blurring but soon returns. Quickly I get dressed and make my way down the stairs, already being able to hear the yells and laughter of all the kids. I finally arrive in the living room where everyone is, already dressed
"Mornin' nice of you to join us" Arthur grunts while reading the paper. I look at Arthur confused
"It's 1pm love" Polly says
"1? bloody hell" I frown looking around and spot a spare seat next to Isaiah. Wobbly I walk over and sit down
"You feelin' alright?"
"Err yeah just need a drink" I sigh. Isaiah pulls me closer to him
"I'll put the kettle on" Polly smiles at me
"Thanks" I smile back.

After having a cup of tea my head starts to feel fuzzy again
"Aunt YN can we go and ride the horses" Katie, Johns eldest asks me
"Not today Katie maybe another day"
"Why?"
"I'm not feeling great today that's all" I weakly smile at my niece
"But yesterday you said we could go ride the horses"
"I know I did but..." John then cuts me off
"You remember when me and Esme told you and the kids that Aunt YN is poorly?"
"Yeah?" Katie frowns
"We'll some times YN doesn't feel poorly but today she does"
"Why don't you all go outside and play eh?" Tommy speaks
"Ok" Katie is obviously upset, but takes Charlie's hand and begins to walk out. After they walk out I sigh while closing my eyes
"How bad is it this time?" Arthur asks in a worried voice
"It's coming in waves. Right now, if I stand up I will probably pass out"
"Please tell me this hasn't been getting worse" Polly sighs
"No...maybe a little, as it's been so warm out"
"I'll get you a drink and something to eat" Isaiah says getting up
"Why didn't you tell anyone you were strugglin?" Tommy asks with his arms folded
"Didn't wanna worry any of you. Your all busy and I've dealt with this my whole life so it's nothin new" I shrug
"So you didn't even tell Isaiah?" Polly asks and I shake my head
"Here" Isaiah walks over to us handing me a drink and some food
"Thanks"
"Isaiah can I have a word" Tommy nods towards the door of the room. Isaiah places a kiss on my forehead and follows Tommy out
"How do you feel now?" John asks
"A little better" I smile at my brother.

"Right" Tommy says walking back in with Isaiah "we've just spoken and we think you need to speak to a doctor"
"What? no come on Tommy. This isn't serious. Last time the doctor said to just eat better"
"And have you?" Arthur asks raising his brows. I look down ashamed
"No" I mumble
"Ok. I'll make you a deal eh? you start eating better or you see a doctor"
"Fine" I roll my eyes at Tommy
"Aye you may be an adult now, but your brothers still care for you" Polly scolds me
"I know I know. I'm sorry for worrying you"
"Just don't do it again" John laughs sitting next to me. Isaiah sits the other side of me pulling me into him
"Watch those hands" Arthur warns making me laugh
"What are you doing to do when I have a child Arthur?"
"Your not" I roll my eyes at Arthur
"Leave our dear sister alone. I'm surprised she's not knocked up already" John laughs then looks at me "your not are you?" his eyes widen
"No" I chuckle
"Good. Keep it that way" Arthur points to me. All this time Tommy is giving Isaiah a death stare
"Yeah yeah whatever" I roll my eyes again.
