Wondering every year what will change,
Delirium talked about only on this day,
All I see in papers is the damage it does,
Don’t know what else I can do,
2 minutes of orientation can hugely impact,
0 excuses for why screening isn’t being done
2 minutes to consider the drugs you use and there effects,
50-80% in ICU will have it,
Yet I was only told when asked to speak at a conference.
Delirium is like a puppy it’s not just for Christmas,
Delirium is not bad news on tv you can’t ignore it,
Delirium is not bad behaviour it’s something you intervene on,
Delirium is not pleasant it can be a fight for your life,
Delirium is not easy it changed my entire life,
Delirium has scarred me and nine years on I still bare the scars.
