    After having severe pneumonia they recommended home health care  so I agreed to it.  I have always liked staying up late and sleeping in as well.  Hospitals are notorious for not letting patients get sleep because they have to do their jobs on a schedule.  I found that in the hospital there was a 4 hour period between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. and that was it!  So the first thing I want when I get home is to get some sleep.  But the day after my phone rang at 8 a.m. from home health wanting to schedule a visit.  I asked them to call me later numerous times but every time I would get a different person and communication between workers was not very good.  This continued on for about 3 weeks and never got any better so I told them to go away and leave me alone.  I didn't especially mind the visits and the physical therapy guy was nice but he wasn't a help really.  It seems these services are great for people who are more feeble than me and I will consider them in the future but right now I just want to sleep.
