Sleep Deprived!

Good Monday Late Afternoon, October 29, 2018 @16:46:22 MT to you. I am sitting in my comfortable hyperbaric chamber right now. It is at 1.3 ATA and I am wearing my oxygen mask. I have a bottle of water right next to me. My computer is on my lap. My cell phone is next to me. My personal fan is blowing at my left shoulder and neck. I have the ice pack on my back and chest. I am comfortable except for being very tired.

I am Sleep Deprived! I was up until after 4am with indigestion and fits of bowl issues all night. D really needed his sleep so I was able to recline in the living room with my computer for a while and live through the pain. I sipped on ginger tea for most of the night. I was able to keep it warm with water from my electric teapot. I listened to the deer jumping up against my crab apple tree last night but didn’t watch them.

I am pretty unmotivated today. I was able to sleep until 10 this morning but the sleep pattern was broken into last night. I am sure that I am experiencing a kind of detox with all of the work the stem cells and this chamber are helping me with. I would prefer not to eat because I know the troubles that will catch up with me. I have changed my diet also. Dr’s orders. I am on a Paleo/Ketogenic Diet. No sugar, no dairy, no wheat or grain and most fruit are off-limits for a while too. I am adjusting but there is always a cost to pay and brother am I glad that we recently bought a case of tp.

I am looking forward to going to bed early this evening. My body wants to feel the comfort that laying down provides it. I want to dream. I want to provide my brain with the necessary rest it needs to repair itself. I also want a less active gi tract tonight!

I am leaving now because I am not able to think well. Its been one of those days. I am cool and happy in my chamber. I will try to rest while I am in here too.

I am sending my love your way today/tonight dear ones.

Hugs,

Suz

Today I woke up hopeful. In just a few hours I fee the walls narrowing and the floor sloping. Time to take a breath! Recovery from TBI requires patience and awareness. What a journey it has been. Think positively Suz. Keep the mind of Christ. Love yourself. Love others. Take care of each moment. Cherish the good. Repent of the bad. And always keep living your life well!
