Margrie Zenzano: The Girl Who Couldn't Sleep




Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Margrie Zenzano who couldn't sleep. She would lie in her bed for hours, counting sheep, staring at the ceiling, and thinking about all the things she had to do the next day. But no matter what she did, she just couldn't fall asleep.

One night, Margrie's parents decided to take her to the doctor. The doctor examined her and asked her all sorts of questions. Finally, he said, "Margrie, I think you have a case of insomnia."

Margrie was confused. "Insomnia?" she asked. "What's that?"

"Insomnia is a condition where people have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep," the doctor explained. "It can be caused by a lot of things, like stress, anxiety, or depression."

Margrie nodded. "I think I might have stress," she said. "I'm always worried about school and my friends and my family. I never feel like I'm good enough."

The doctor smiled. "That's okay, Margrie," he said. "I'm going to give you some medicine to help you sleep. And I want you to try to relax more. Take some time for yourself each day to do things you enjoy, like reading or playing with your friends.

Margrie took the doctor's advice. She started taking the medicine and she made an effort to relax more. She started reading every night before bed and she made time to play with her friends every day.

  • Slowly but surely, Margrie's insomnia started to improve. She was able to fall asleep more easily and she stayed asleep for longer periods of time.
Margrie and her family were so relieved. Finally, Margrie was able to get a good night's sleep!
The next day, Margrie woke up feeling refreshed and energized. She went to school and had a great day. She was able to focus in class and she didn't feel tired at all.
That night, Margrie went to bed feeling happy and relaxed. She knew that she would be able to fall asleep easily and she was excited to wake up feeling refreshed and energized the next day.
And so, Margrie Zenzano, the girl who couldn't sleep, finally found a way to get a good night's rest.
