DM Edith Wets The Bed
At Edith's school, her class was getting ready for a big maths test. But Edith having recently been diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome was full of severe anxiety where she wasn't sure if she could manage such a big thing. She thought of nothing else but it all day long and it was in fact only a couple of days away which wasn't long at all so that didn't help.
Edith was very quiet that evening. Even Gru couldn't work out what could be wrong with his middle aged daughter. The worry made Edith feel tired so she went to bed early fell asleep straight away even though the next morning. Her anxiety was bigger than it was before.
After breakfast, Edith trudged her way slowly to school, where her teacher Mrs Morrison explained all about the test and what the class had to do. Edith tried hard to listen. But it was difficult when she could only worry about what the parts she might not be able to do.
Again, Edith went to bed early. The test was tomorrow. Edith snuggled down under her duvet. Her felt snug and warmer than ever when she was this tired. Edith had been sleeping for about an hour, when she felt she needed to go to the bathroom. She got out of bed, but her onesie, it was all wet! And her bed was wet too! Edith had wet the bed again!
This was too much for Edith. She began to cry. So loudly that it brought Gru running in. ''Edith, what's de matter?'' he asked. Then let alone her tear streaked checks, she saw her wet onesie and bed. ''Oh, You wet de bed again?'' he asked. ''Yes'' Edith sniffed ''I was so busy worrying about the test tomorrow, I forgot to go to the bathroom earlier''.
''Listen to me Edith'' Gru said ''You shouldn't worry about de maths test. Just try you best. Dat's all your teacher wants''. He squeezed Edith tightly. ''Now keeton'' he continued ''Let's change your PJs and de bed sheets. Edith felt better once she had a dry onesie and dry bed. At school the next day. The test wasn't as bad as Edith had thought. She even got quite a few of the sums right!
The End
