~Sleepin~

I dont know what it is..if my mattress is bad or what, something is

lately the for past what now..? Month? i've been complaining about

my back , butt and tailbone..well hips too... I am sleeping so horribly..

I dont sleep but a few hours at a time..like maybe 3 or 4, then I have

to find a different position..well phooey.. I can only lay on my back or

sit up ! Not alot of choices there, my right side is most uncomfortable

and my left is not doable at all..not in any comfort..I think if I lay on my

back and if I am in any kind of degree well at an angle there is

pressure that is being put on my tail bone, and sometimes it sure does

get sore..lately alot.I have tried a pillow behind my back where I am l

aying more at a slant on my side, and that works sometimes, but not

for long, then I roll onto my back again...

I sleep sometimes sitting up.. and I know you are thinking..sitting up?

lol..yes kinda sorta... I use 4 of my pillows...and stack them in front of

me and then the top one I fold in half and use that one to keep my

head up higher..and just lean forward...With no legs I can fold right in

half and to sit like that is not a problem and in fact quite comfortable.

I have been finding i can sleep longer like that than I can in any

other position. If I could lay on my left side or my right it maybe would

help..but my left side I cant at all because of the bypass that goes down

that side..If I lean just right and you run your hand down my side you
can feel it..its really amazing...That is how they had to do my 2nd
abdominal bypass. So now I cant lay on that side at all really. With my
left stump being longer that puts extra weight on it and it hangs over
the right when I lay that way..and even with a pillow it doesnt work real
well I feel like I am going to topple over well weeble right onto my belly
if I go too far lol...

I dont know but I think the answer is to try to flip the mattress over

Its been on this side since I got it and not flipped at all..so maybe that

would help.. I could get a hospital bed if I want then I could get the over

head puller upper thing-I wish they made them double beds not single-

single beds are just too small. I only have a double bed now but sleeping

side ways its like a king size..well no ..not really I have stuff all overit..6

pillows and 2 woolbies and a quilt for starters lol...Plus 3 cats..yes 3..I

include LB's girlfriend she is up on that bed more than me!!! lol.. :-)

Well talking about that bed..I think I hear it callin me..so even tho it
makes my tailbone sore..its still a good place to be lol...so I am
CAREFULLY going to go out to the kitchen and get a soda and some of
those strawberry newtons..and watch tv..LOST is on tonite and I like
that show.. I did get lost my self a while back I kept falling asleep so I
didnt keep up on it...Well lets hope I dont get LOST on my way to the
kitchen and back and that I dont get attacked by it again :-)
lol...Nitey Nite....

Y'all have a good one now Y'hear? LUV YA !!!! & Thanks :-)

Always, Lois****
