Dear Darla, Ben and Sarah.
Thank you for replying to my post. I hate sounding whiney, and complaining about bad dreams seems such a silly thing to complain about. I DO try to remind myself that they're just dreams, but last night is a perfect example of a typical night for me. I had 5 different dreams (I was able to relay four of them this morning), all different themes. During one of them Loz was woken up by my crying

, and when I woke up this morning, I wasn't sure if what I'd dreamed was just a dream or real. Ugh. Anyhow, I'm trying to think good thoughts before bed, and am trying to reestablish a way of stopping my dreams that I used when I was young. Might even throw in a mug of warm milk before bedtime if this keeps up. Like I said, dreading going to sleep and waking up exhausted is getting me down...
Thank you all for your kind words and warm replies. I hope that any bad dreams you're experiencing calm as well. Sarah, I do notice that I often have night sweats with the bad dreams, but I'm not sure if it's a response to the dream, or if it's a fever that causes the dream, that's certainly an interesting question. Ben, I love how not much phases you, you're an inspiration on so many levels. Darla, wonderful seeing you around too, it's been a while!
Hugs to you all,
Jeanna
