| Looking back, I realized that sleep disruptions were occuring regularly before the nights with hallucinations started. | This weekend, I suddenly remembered that starting several weeks ago, Rita was having a bad dream and coming into our room nearly every night. I don't know when this started but it seems like it was shortly before Halloween. At the time, I thought that Rita's behavior was highly unusual for her. She's usually great at sleeping through the night and Rose is far more apt to wake up and call us. Seemingly out of the blue, Rita started waking up scared and coming into our bed night after night. She would stay awake in our bed for 30 minutes or so and then agree to go back to her own bed. At the time, I just attributed it to the excitement of Halloween and her upcoming birthday. I now think this was probably a precursor to the hallucinations that she eventually had. | | |
