May 20th 2015 - Sleep (or lack of)

Sleep is for the WEAK, but maybe it should be sleep for a WEEK!  This 1st pin for today about sums things up - sleep catch up at the weekend, for all that I missed during week.  And the 2nd pin for today sums up why I have had no sleep - Mothers and sleep.

I have spent the past 2 nights at the hospital with my youngest son.  He has slept ok, apart from waking in pain few times (which woke me).  Monday night the boy in the next bed kept crying he was in pain and woke me (his mum slept through it).  And last night the new boy in the ward and his dad were watching tv (very loudly) until nearly 11pm (had paid for movies), the dad then spent most of the night snoring (very loudly) and the boy had the tv on from just gone 5am again very loudly!  Add to this all the machines and bells going off all night, nurses coming and going to do temperature and pulse etc (with not much room between my fold out bed and sons bed) i kept getting woken up!

I am safely saying I will sleep tonight!
