Lizze and I will once again be spending the day at the Cleveland Clinic. This trip is dedicated to the sleep doctor. Lizze has a condition called idiopathic hypersomnia.
Basically, she needs 15+ hours of sleep a day, whereas most people only need 6-8 hours.
You may remember that for a long time, she was literally sleeping almost all day, everyday.
For the past few months though, in a big fat, ironic twist of fate, she’s been battling insomnia. She can go days in end without sleeping. Considering everything that we have going on, that’s definitely not a good thing, not that it would ever be a good thing.
We are desperately hoping that she can get some help.
I can only imagine that sleep deprivation would make everything worse for her.
Wish us luck……..
I know of a couple of conditions that cause a person to not be able to sleep. Not good for the body! Prayers for Lizzie and good results that the doctor will have a way to help her. Safe travels!
