Not sleeping well. I didn't sleep well last night. I found it hard to get to sleep and then the sleep I did get was nightmareful. As I was lying in bed reading last night, my wife was asleep next to me and she started to make quiet snoring noises. She used to sleep on her stomach until a physio told her it was not helping her bad shoulder/neck. On her back, her breathing makes sounds. Not disturbing or enough to keep me awake or anything, just normal person sleeping sounds. But then she made the exact same sound my father made when he was lying naked in the shower, as I tried to revive him. An unnatural choking/gurgling sound, a strain for breath from a blocked throat. The sound he made as he looked into my eyes as his clouded over, the sound he made seconds before I started giving him mouth to mouth. The sound he made as he died.

And so I had trouble getting to sleep last night.
