“I screamed, fighting my blanket. I was stuck beneath the blanket. My laptop cord had me pinned down. The room was dark and the only light was shining from my laptop as it returned from its sleep mode. I finally got loose and fell to the floor.

She had fallen asleep on the couch and I had woken her with my screams. She ran for me as soon as she saw me, immediately enveloping me in her arms.
