At least I'm at home…(cont.) What's the longest you've gone without sleep? (poll)

[Grateful11]

Actually that's 2 questions in one. The longest I've ever been was the time my first son was born. Woke
at 6am went to work, back home at 4pm, grilled hamburgers, 11pm wife went into labor, went to hospital,
son born at 10am next morning, stayed with them all day, went and bought her flowers, got at midnight
and crashed. I believe that's 42 hrs straight with absolutely no sleep.

Other question, haven't slept good in over 5 years because of my back. I'm usually in bed around midnight
to 1am and by 5-6am I'm in too much pain to stay in the bed and I get in my oversize LazyBoy recliner,
with Meds, that reclines almost complete flat out and I try to get 2-3 hours sleep in it. I would never ever
wish back pain on anyone, if you've never had back problems thank your lucky stars or however.
