November Mindfulness: Day 3 'Comfortable'
I think this really speaks for itself, but for a brief explanation of the most comfortable 'bed nest' in the world:
Back/periscapular muscles spasm causing horrible, lasting pain (talking over a week of heightened pain here) & a very unhappy body...
Nurse: Don't sleep on that arm [with the PICC line in it]
Physio: Don't sleep on that shoulder if it's compressing nerves
Body: .............. OUCH! Can't sleep.... 😱!!!!
Insomnia driven brain = best creative ideas EVER.
😴

I literally put the cushion back on the chair 3 days in a row and ended up hauling it back to my bed in the middle of the night again. It's been back on the chair for several days now and my bed no longer looks like a nest. Every night since, I have stared at it and wondered if I'd be sleeping already if it was back on my bed....

Maybe I need larger arm pillows ... mine are travel-sized. And when there is pain, just where the hell ARE we supposed to sleep? Nobody gets it until they get it.

Well, I recommend Pier 1... 😊 Seriously though, as many soft, perfect pillows as possible are my only way - even then I think when I sleep it's because I've crossed the exhaustion threshold rather than found a 'normally' comfortable pillow fort!
