I can wake in the middle of the night; unable to sit myself up or to call for help. Having an asthma attack and not being able to breathe is awful but even more scary for my husband. He sometimes sits for hours watching me; making sure I am breathing properly. Occupational Thearpy (Swindon, Wiltshire) has supplied me with a hospital bed, so that with a slight movement of my hand, I can press a button and the bed will sit me up. However, this does not solve the problem of me being able to call Noel - so introducing a bright shiny bell, that I can ping! I can sleep better knowing I am relatively safe and Noel can sleep deaper and longer knowing I can call him. Very simple but simple works for us xx
