He also has to wake up at 4:30AM to get ready for work and I can't go back to sleep once I wake up so that would mean that I would be getting up every morning at 4:30 instead of getting some rest. We've actually discussed replacing our king-sized bed with two doubles because we have such different sleeping habits normally that we seem to sleep better seperately (neither of us enjoys cuddling).
Currently, we don't have an extra bed, which would fit next to our king bed. The bed in our spare room is a queen...
I guess I am going to need to suck it up and ask my doctor when he thinks it would be safe for sex again. Some people might not think that sex is that terribly important but I feel it's a level of intimacy that we need in order to feel closer to each other. He's been wonderful and patient but I can see it is wearing on him. Carpe Diem!! 38, non-smoker, otherwise perfect health. Biopsy: 3/8/2012, SCC Dx Right Underside Tongue: 3/12/2012, Surgery: 4/11/2012 Partial Gloss + Neck Dissection to remove 29 nodes (all clear). No Rads or Chemo req'd. I believe my SCC was caused by product used in dental work.
