Hi, LJ, I think that sleeping during the day at 8 weeks post tx. is pretty normal and it would not be surprising for that to continue for awhile. Along with the physical strain your husband has dealt with since this started, there has been a hugh emotional toll on him [and you] which is also exhausting. The fact that he is asking for some more time to recoup [i.e.asking you to back off a little] is good. He has lots of things to sort out for himself as do you. If he is beginning to feel better, hopefull you can use this time to get some rest and recouperation for yourself. Amy in the Ozarks
