In The Dark
Welcome back!
Right after I had written my last article, and gone off-line; our light went out.
It made me glad that i had turned off everything. It also frustrated me since I was aobut ready to go to sleep myself. With most people, going to sleep isn’t hard. I have very severe sleep apnea. Going to sleep without my 2 breathing machines could end up being fatal.
Well, it gives a new meaning to keeping an eye on things. I ended up having to wait until 5 in the morning when the lights came back on. If the power had been off for more than that amount of time, I would have needed to go to a medical facility and ask for help because of my medical condition. At least while I’m awake there is no problem. I once fell asleep with heart moniters on me and created a CODE BLUE on my floor of the hospital. It was a learning experience for me and the nurse who were on duty at that time.
When I had gone through the sleep clinic, the doctor later told me that my sleep apnea had gotten to the point where it was life threatening. Now I know what he meant exactly.
