Nothing takes me down with MS faster than missing my sleep. I can usually do one night of fewer than eight hours, but two in a row? Last night I was WIDE-eyed and worried. A bout of food poisoning wreaked havoc on my night which I could typically manage, but not two nights in a row. The night before, I failed to get in as many hours of sleep as I needed but didn’t worry because it was just one night. Yikes! I’m going to take it easy today because two nights without sleep can trigger MS, and therefore, I must manage myself tenderly today and get to bed early tonight.
