He also started on the first unit of blood around 12:55am.  And oddly enough, he started speaking plainly out of the clear blue sky talking like himself to me and to the nurses. I was like wait&#8230;you are speaking coherently. Then he went straight to sleep again. We have about an hour before the next assault and second unit of blood arrives. No sleep for vampires. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And these neat little air blowing machines they have around here are great. I need to roll this one right on home with me for the night sweats and hot flashes. Maybe just carry it around as a backpack. They blow cool or warm air through this almost dryer type hose and you can just put it inside the sheets with you or right up your shorts leg. I mean someone could if they were inclined. How handy would that be? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, the room is still too warm. I need someone to show me how to jump out the controls to these places that only allow you 3 degrees in either direction. Or simply just make you think you are adjusting it when it really is controlled by a short little maintenance thermostat hobgoblin on his computer or  phone. Ask me how I know that? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div class=\"\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:50.00000%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/gassett.info\/david\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_7686-768x1024.jpeg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/gassett.info\/david\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_7686-768x1024.jpeg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/gassett.info\/david\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_7686-768x1024.jpeg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/gassett.info\/david\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_7686-768x1024.jpeg?strip=info&#038;w=1500&#038;ssl=1 1500w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/gassett.info\/david\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_7686-768x1024.jpeg?strip=info&#038;w=1800&#038;ssl=1 1800w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/gassett.info\/david\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_7686-768x1024.jpeg?strip=info&#038;w=1920&#038;ssl=1 1920w\" alt=\"\" data-height=\"2560\" data-id=\"1344\" data-link=\"https:\/\/gassett.info\/david\/?attachment_id=1344\" data-url=\"https:\/\/gassett.info\/david\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_7686-768x1024.jpeg\" data-width=\"1920\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/gassett.info\/david\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_7686-768x1024.jpeg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Open image 1 of 2 in full-screen\"\/><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:50.00000%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/gassett.info\/david\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_7688-768x1024.jpeg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/gassett.info\/david\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_7688-768x1024.jpeg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/gassett.info\/david\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_7688-768x1024.jpeg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/gassett.info\/david\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_7688-768x1024.jpeg?strip=info&#038;w=1500&#038;ssl=1 1500w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/gassett.info\/david\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_7688-768x1024.jpeg?strip=info&#038;w=1800&#038;ssl=1 1800w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/gassett.info\/david\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_7688-768x1024.jpeg?strip=info&#038;w=1920&#038;ssl=1 1920w\" alt=\"\" data-height=\"2560\" data-id=\"1343\" data-link=\"https:\/\/gassett.info\/david\/?attachment_id=1343\" data-url=\"https:\/\/gassett.info\/david\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_7688-768x1024.jpeg\" data-width=\"1920\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/gassett.info\/david\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_7688-768x1024.jpeg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Open image 2 of 2 in full-screen\"\/><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About 20 minutes later David had soaked his sheets, pillow and hospital gown with sweat, left a rather noxious stool sample in the bathroom, and had one of his IVs blow out.
