Fevers without reason
Coming and going
Reassured each visit
Your tiny Wonder Woman looked well, but you knew

Nausea and vomiting
Coming and going
Weight loss could be celiac
More still to investigate, but you knew

Abdominal pain and fatigue
Coming and going
Endoscopies done, biopsies pending
Just the smallest hint of hesitation now, but you knew

Double vision tipped us off
Maybe it was her head after all
A silent nemesis concealed beneath her skull
A surprise to the smartest among us, but you always knew
