Day 3 on an air mattress

Sunday afternoon hubby and I went to Sam's Club and bought a $30 air mattress. I'd slept so much better when I was at my sister's and slept on her air mattress that I thought it would be worth the investment. After all, we can always use it when we go camping.
We had my nephew come over Sunday evening and help my hubby move the mattress off my bed and out to the garage. Then I blew up the air mattress (it came with a built in pump). The first night was ok, but we could tell it needed more air. So I added air to it Monday night. Slept a little better on Monday night but hubby said he felt like he was rolling off the bed. We figured he felt that way because he was sleeping right on the edge. So he moved over closer to the middle. So last night he slept right up until the alarm went off. I actually woke up 10 minutes before the alarm went off. So that was the best night sleep I have had since my back began to hurt! I still don't go into that deep sleep that I so desperately need to do, but I will take what I can get right now.
So the mattress we paid over $600 for (on sale at Sleep America) sits in my garage while the cheap air mattress is on my bed and gives me the better night sleep. Who'd a thought?!?!?!
Anyway, my pain is still here. But my hope is with more sleep, maybe the back will begin to heal itself.
I am trying to avoid typing as much as possible, so am on JCFaith on and off throughout the day. So I am here...just not typing as much.
I did see a lawyer yesterday. I would like prayer on this. I am not out to "make money" from my fall. I just want my bills to be paid and to be compensated for my pain, suffereing and lack of sleep. SO pray that I will receive what is right and fair. Nothing more...nothing less. I have been told this might be difficult because we do have to prove liability. So pray for that as well. Thank you.
