Hi everyone 
I can't sleep because I have woken up from nightmares and my husband is still in hospital 
He is responding to treatment

    Sorry to hear that here are my tips on how to sleep better;

    buy some sleep pillow mist 
    watch TV or something or read a book in bed 
    be in a bedroom that's not too cold 
    get a weighted blanket.
