A rude awakening.

at least it wasn't hot tea.
a careworker i know has to do extra laundry because her bed-bound client frequently drops off holding a cup.
she tries to stand over her and urges her to drink it, but she can't be there all the time, and doesn't want to be overbearing.
could you try to eat at table, or use a tray if in bed/chair.
it happens to lots of people. esp with some medication.
take care FH.

It was such a jolt though... I almost ? myselfX

Weetabix has the same effect on me, Flying, if you know what I mean. ?

Fell asleep on the settee with a mug of coffee in my hand, spoilt my clothes and the settee. I had just come out of hospital and was groggy, I am usually very careful. It does give you a shock when it happens.

More than once propped up in bed with bedtime cuppa have dozed, twitched and soaked nightie, bed and pillows and on one occasion the whippet who was having a cuddle. I try to remember now to stand the mug down between mouthfulls. Not allways successfully.

Luckily I didn't do it this morning, although that's possibly because I didn't have Weetabix (what did I have though?) and I didn't do it with the porridge i've just eaten! X

I didn't see it but one of my old Girl Guide leaders reportedly did a face plant into a bowl of spaghetti when she fell asleep at camp!
