Ugh, well I must admit that I sleep naked....seems to work since the ceiling fan cools me quite quickly, before I soak the sheets. When I do wear cotton jams,(when in the hospital) I soak right through them. If anyone is interested, I have started a blog regarding my CML. It is chronological from daignoses on. Hopefully it can help newly diagnosed patients. Dancing My Way Through Leukemia (CML) <http://cmlleukemia.blogspot.com/>Hope everyones having a great day! Michele
