Went to bed very very late last night 4am - been moved to a quieter room and I guess I don't adapt to change very well so stayed up in lounge talking to staff while patients slept or read book and listened to music.

One of the support workers I really like (the one I defended from an aggressive patient a few weeks back) only works nights and she brings in treats (cakes, biscuits etc) for the other staff... She almost always offers to me as well.

As said went to bed very late last night, wished her goodnight and as it's customary that in morning she usually pops her head round door to say bye to me at end of shift I said it was doubtful I'd be awake this time so I hope she had a nice day.

Well, woke up with 4 hours sleep, startled by noise and anxious.... Sat up to get dressed and saw she had left the rest of the cookies she brought in last night on my desk at end of bed while I slept. Such a lovely gesture that both made me smile and cry a little.

Thought I'd share.
