Friday 23 December
It's Friday 4.40 am, yesterday was ok, just a day of intravenous antibiotics, blood tests, blood pressure and temperatures, all good so far, hoping to go home today.
I really need some SLEEP!!! I am so fed up. The lady they moved who snored the worst got moved because she had an awful cough and they didn't want it spreading, but she was replaced by the loudest snorer ever.
I think in the last three nights I have had in total about five hours sleep...I need to go home, I need to sleep, the ladies are so,so lovely during the day, but at night...The snoring is driving me crazy! I get terrible thoughts, the ear plugs don't work, I've tried my earphones with music playing, still all I can hear is snoring!!! I don't think I can take much more. Now there are two of them at it. I give up. How dooo they manage to sleep themselves?
Stop this ride....I want to get off!!!
