I can't fall asleep unless my husband is in the house. I do much BETTER is he is actually in the bed, but if I'm very tired I can fall asleep knowing he is downstairs and will be up soon. When he is gone I get little decent sleep - an overnite or weekend isn't too bad, thrice he has been gone for 6 weeks at a time and I became a zombie by the time he got back. The very worst is when he is hospitalized - it feels very wrong for him to be sleeping a few blocks up the street while I 'm at home in bed.
