I understand completely because after my late husband had his first heart attack and expecially after he had open-heart surgery I would waken many times during the night to check on him. His slightest movement in the twin bed next to mine would wake me up and then after checking on him, often I could not get back to sleep.
Even though our caretaker roles may still have some influence on our sleepness effected lives, at least I am comforted in that my husband and I were married almost 60 years and try to dwell on the "good" memories, and that helps to sustain me.
There is a passage in the Bible that I read that gives me comfort during those sleepless hours: Ecclesiastes Chapter 3 --To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.
Enjoy every day, it is a gift.
