Maybe it is narcolepsy in a different form?

Dang! Where did you find this Sharonda?! I remember learning in Bio Basis that humans normally reset their sleeping clock, even after they have been up for over 80 hours, so that they cannot sleep for more than 15 hours at a time. However, Louisa has slept for 13 days at a time! It must be some sort of coma.

Hey Lia,
I do not remember how I came across this clip. Your comment about the biological part is interesting. Yeah, it appears that something is wrong with her sleep/awake cycle. I am sure there is a rhythm to her sleep/awake cycle but it’s not circadian. It is doing something extraordinary.

That is so bizarre. I really enjoy sleep, but not that much! I also wonder, how is it physically possible to sleep that much!? Narcolepsy is also intriguing…
