03-21-2010 night

I woke up this morning about 6:30, went back to sleep and slept until 8:30. I had a pretty decent voice this morning. The other post was actually more like 03-20 but I dated it because I wasn't paying attention, lol. Last night was very similar to that night...I slept in my chair. I walked what I considered normal because I polished my regular shoes and wore them to dad's burial. A lot of pain still after my ham episode but the bleeding has subsided. My saliva glands still aren't working properly. My throat is still swelled and I still sound like Sling Blade, lol.

I have the whistling in my right ear, like air being bet out. It doesn't hurt but can be distracting. Dad would have been proud of his funeral today and all those that took part in it. Thank you to all the ones that took part in it.

Denise is going to call Rathfoot tomorrow and see if he can see me early. Tonight, I sleep again in my chair.

Well, I'm setting up tonight. It's 3:43am and I am tired but when I lay down or start to sleep, I can't get air. It feels like my throat has closed off and I simply quit breathing. I have some pretty weird dreams or something while this is happening. Then I awake and gasp for air. My feet are completely numb, not like numb from the neuropathy, along with my hands and chest pain. I just can't get enough air. I can her the flap thing sound like cards in a bicycle spoke. I even lay down and just simply stop breathing.

I kept it in control at dad's funeral. I seen people I haven't saw in quite a while. I figure I'll try it again. No pain though except for the dryness. I read somewhere about soda helping, this is my third glass of Pepsi. It burns terrible but at least if might just work. This morning I woke up and couldn't talk but after brushing me teeth and hacking and gargling, I regained my voice back to an extent.
