    Bruce and Rose, everyone is
    unique, but for me, 5 hours
    wouldn't allow me to enjoy the
    late night dancing I do with the
    female friends I didn't know a
    year ago. About 7 hours works
    for me. Right after Linda died,when I was in a state of
    shock, I couldn't sleep at ALL,
    bc I kept seeing her collapse,
    then die, in front of me, and I
    had PTSD. My doctor gave me
    over the counter, non addictive
    Melatonin to relax me enough
    to sleep about 4 hours. Gradually, talking through my
    horror, guilt, depression, and
    loneliness after Linda died, I
    was able to sleep longer. I know
    Rose has family. Do you have
    any family , or care from a PCP
    (Primary Care Physician), Bruce? Lou

    Funny, Bruce, but with your
    strong opinions & different
    spelling ("krap",instead of crap),
    I mistook you for my other
    younger brother here. George.

    Bruce, glad to hear you will
    see grief counselor. I had 2.
    I didn't like the 1st guy, who
    was not empathetic, and went
    to a much more compassionate
    woman, the 2nd time. When
    you email me, make sure @ is
    in the email address, or it won't
    work. Please try again.

    Thanks, Lou

    Rose, being the persistent PITA
    ( pain in the ass) that I am, I
    badgered "Kelso" to reveal his
    first name, and that of his wife.
    He IS Bruce , and wife was Terry.
    I believe that saying the names
    is the first step in the grief
    journey,though I understand
    why you, & other widows here ,
    wish to protect their privacy.
