The sleep study is in the middle of March. I do better if I am busy doing

somethimg on my feet. If I am sitting, I'm in trouble!!

I sure hope you find out what's going, so it can be treated. It's no fun to

sleep nearly all the time. And like Lana said, you could get hurt if you nodded

off doing something where alertness is needed.

I'll be keeping you in my prayers.

Love,
