Hang in there Joan, staying in bed will pay off.  I have been in bed off and 
on, more recently in bed a lot and I got up for the first day in about 10 days. 
 The doctors suggest getting up once a day for about an hour when I am trying 
to heal a pressure sore.  But I find that my sore is in a crevis of of my skin 
and getting up and down caused setbacks.
Stay strong... Dan T

help, I have found that in the last three or four years I am better at
regulating my body temperature. I don't get as cold nearly as much as I used
to, but I am often cold when I go to bed and then wake up several hours
later roasting. That's when my fan goes on, and then a while later it will
have to go off. For those of us who are higher quads, just the lack of
ability to move and warm those muscles is a primary reason for the slowness
in our responding to temperatures. I absolutely love my wood stove, and the
fact that it has a glass window makes it even more appealing. For these last
five weeks of bed rest, the thing I miss the most is my wood stove -- of
course realistically I miss being up.
