sabbath day.

It is a beautiful, sunny day in St. Louis. Mike got more sleep last night than the night before. He was still having trouble relaxing & sleeping and the night nurse finally said "I don't care how you do it, but you have to figure out how to get some sleep. I don't care if you sleep upside down or on the floor but you body needs sleep." So I rolled Mike over on his side (off of his incredibly sore back) and crawled into bed with him... and he slept. Not uninterrupted mind you, but we'll take it. There were urinal breaks to take and IV cords to unkink. (Need an IV line un-occluded and the machine reset?) I'm your girl. We "slept in" until 8am. (Good thing because I think our soundest sleep was between 4am and 7am.)
