How long should I let Mom sleep?

They have monitors with cameras now. I would have to turn the volume down so I cannot hear his TV....But, I am going to buy one today.

Baby monitors are awesome!

My partner has always stayed up late and slept in. Even before he got worse. Ever since I have known him he has slept in. I usually go to bed at 8 or so and give him his cell and house phone to call me...if he needs help. Now I have given him a bell to ring. But, I am thinking about getting a baby monitor.

Staying in a fixed position for lengthy periods of time can lead to a stroke. 10-15 hours a day for a long period of time is not healthy.

My partner watches his shows from 8 to about midnight and I head for the bedroom to watch mine. IT IS SUCH A GREAT TIME FOR ME! Then he sleeps in - in the morning till about 11:00 when I wake him up. That gives me every morning to myself also. As he progresses, this will probably change. But I would love to sleep in just once...My partner may be bedridden soon, so I am trying to get him out on the porch for sunshine and I take him with me when I am going on short errands. He wait patiently in the car as I go in for Scrips etc. I don't take him everytime. But, I give him his cell phone and the home phone so he can call me. That reminds me I have to set up both phones so he just has to push one number to get me...Hope you get some rest also.

Try to get her on some sort of schedule, it minimizes the level of confusion. A nap after lunch should not go past dinner time or she will be up all night.
