They managed to break the bed I was in so I am back in a chair for the time being.  Three treatments now.  I hate it!  I did not have a good sleep last night. Could not get comfortable and woke up several times. At 2 I gave it up and stayed awake.  My left hand had tingles in it for an hour.  I hate sitting in that chair. I may cry on Friday if the bed is not fixed yet.

I hope they get the bed fixed.

CRY if you want to. Don't let anyone tell you different.

Go ahead and cry!    :'(   I will cry right along with you.  (not that I need anymore reasons to cry!)   Fingers crossed that Friday the bed is fixed.    :cuddle;

Can you call and ask them if you should have a medical supply company deliver a bed, COD?  :boxing;

Sorry Kitkatz, I cannot imagine sitting that long and not being able to sleep.  :cuddle;

Yes, it was miserable and I complained plenty! The other patients thought they should boot patients into chairs by seniority in the room.

Hmmmm Kit, now I wonder what goes on at your center that a bed got broken. Surely do hope your bed is fixed by Friday. You could bring in a blow up mattress and just stretch out on the floor. ( That might get their attention) FIX HER DANGED BED!!!!

She must be asleep. I live about 2.5 miles from her center and have not heard any enormous explosions. ( At least I hope she is asleep )

A bed on Friday night! A bed!  Thank you Lord!  I slept pretty good Friday night.  I was so glad to see my bed.  Not fixed all the way the knees do not work, but I could adjust the head.

Seems the idea was to get me back in it, not fix it properly. Luckily I do not use the feet part of the bed anyway so I do not really care it does not work.

So the other night sleeping in a bed that will not put the head down was interesting.  I was a pretzel for a good part of the night. Luckily late night TV is interesting.  I see Narnia- Prince Caspian and Bolt over two nights.  Sigh!

Oh Boy!!! I still think the blow up mattress would work better. Or, you could sneak over to the bed next to you and cuddle. LOL!!!! I know, I am taking my life in my hands now.
