When I was three years old I had Legg-Calve-Perthes Disease in my left hip. My left hip was rebuilt when I was five. After two years of sporadic pain and difficulties walking my left hip failed on October 14th 2006. This is my blog of the journey I am going through to re-gain my health and again establish a normal, stable and healthy adult life.

Difficulties sleeping

Saturday June 21st, 2008

I am asking for prayer that the Lord would help me sleep when it is my bedtime. The pain in my right hip is making it very difficult. (Later this year I will be having my right hip rebuilt.)

I am really struggling with staying asleep at night. My family doctor has given me sleeping pills to help me while we wait for an operating room to become available. I have my doctors permission to use 4 of them at night. It is getting really hard on me physically speaking waking up in pain 3 to 4 times a night. They are becoming ineffective, the damage in my hip is increasing.

Please pray for my sleep, that is the most pressing need.
