How Can I Prevent My Husband From Vomiting in Our Bed?

Question by Morgan: How can I prevent my husband from vomiting in our bed?
So my husband is a bit of a heavy drinker. I wouldn’t necessarily label him as an “alcoholic”, but the man certainly enjoys his liquor

Ordinarily this isn’t a big deal, but for the past few months he’s been vomiting in his sleep. He was recently diagnosed with a peptic ulcer and has been suffering from severe acid-reflux. Could his night vomits be related somehow?

I have to help him to bed most nights and I’ve been trying to be diligent in giving him his medication but it doesn’t appear to be helping. I’ve been leaving a bucket on the nightstand along with a note stating “Honey, please vomit in the bucket!”, but he doesn’t seem to have enough advance warning before it happens.

How can I prevent this from happening in the future? I’m getting pretty tired of washing the bedspread.

Thanks and God bless.
