Last night was a terrible night
Oh, no. Another cold update.
You are right.
Jackie feels terrible...congested coughing, really tired.
I put her to bed at 10 last night. I was really tired myself, and looked forward to a long sleep.
At 10:10 she said she was suffocating and needed to sit up. We sat up. Then she said to take her to her chair, so I took her to her chair.
After about 30 minutes she wanted to go back to bed, so I took her back to bed where she felt trapped and wanted to go back to her chair.
I took her back to her chair. Finally, she said take me back to bed. I took her to bed, and within 5 minutes she was anxious and restless. So I said, in a not calm voice, it's almost midnight. I can barely stand. I have put you in bed four times so either stay in bed or stay in your chair.
She opted for the chair.
I know, I should have been more empathetic. But it is not easy lifting her, not to mention when I am exhausted and the possibility her being drop iincreases.
I got up several times during the night and she was awake every time, coughing, sneezing, blowing her nose.
I don't know if the cold capsules I gave her caused it, or wether it is just the cold and not being able to breathe.
She said she did not sleep at all, and I believe her.
Today she did take a nap, so did I, but I think it is going to be a long night. I hope she just decides to stay in her chair, where her head can be up and maybe she can breathe better.
Putting Vick's on her to help with congestion, but I am NOT giving her the capsules I gave her last night.
The bright note is . .. 3 days accident free.
Peace and Love
