Here was my night last night:

7pm Bath

730 Books, talk about day, tuck in

8 lights out

810 coughing

9 bring him a glass a water

930 he has fallen asleep coughing has stopped

1100 I wake him up (was told by doctors to wake him after 90 minutes of sleep to help reduce chance of night terror) ask him his name have him use the potty etc... just making sure he is fully awake

1130 he is back asleep

1200 I am asleep

1245 screaming top of his lungs, night terror, can't touch him or talk to him just make sure he doesn't hurt himself

115 night terror ends try to make him feel comfortable; coughing starts again from the screaming

145 he is back to sleep

200 I am asleep

315 or around there another night terror; wife handles it

400 we are all back to sleep

530 he wakes up coughing and itchy red eyes

540 go in help him; start our day

That is a pretty normal night for us. Some nights it is worst others better. I shit you not he has slept through the night 5 times in his life, I know because we give him a star sticker on his "good job" board every time he does it and there are 5 of them.
