Well, that was a tough night, but thank the Universe Sidney is okay. A dear woman in the Feline Diabetes group stayed online with me all night, giving me encouragement and good suggestions.
At 4:15 a.m. Sid's glucose had finally picked up to a good number and had stabilized (stayed at a good number for an hour). So she and I, and the other four kits, finally turned the lights off and went to sleep at 4:30. I did take the Caplyta, btw.
I slept for a couple of hours, then had to re-test Sid, give her her insulin shot and feed everybody. Went back to bed and slept. At noon I needed to re-test my girl and feed her. I drank some orange juice and decided it was a good idea to sleep some more. I did, dreamt I was with Vincent Van Gogh, and awoke at 4 p.m. feeling pretty rested.
Great news - I don't seem to have any side-effects from the Caplyta. Well, except that it does make me feel hungry, so I have to watch that. But no dizziness/off balance feeling. My plan is to be in bed by 10:15 tonight (after taking my meds, including Caplyta) and see how it goes. My hope is that it quiets my mind in addition to helping me to sleep.
Thank you again for your encouragement about the Caplyta. 
Noah and my other N., my daughter, called David today to wish him a happy Father's Day. My daughter is out here from New York to pack up her belongings and finalize her divorce. She had her gallbladder removed last month, but is having severe stomach pain. I'm very worried about her. Of course, she refuses to communicate with me. From best buds to this, and I still do not know why. Neither David nor I believe her lack of communication with me is understandable - or healthy for her.
I told David that if she is hospitalized while here I am going to see her whether she likes it, or not. She's planning to fly back to NY in 10 days, but she's having such bad pain. Something's not right.
So. That's my update.
Love all around~ 
We can make our minds so like still water that beings gather about us that they may see, it may be, their own images, and so live for a moment with a clearer, perhaps even with a fiercer life because of our quiet.
-W.B. Yeats
