He woke up with a level 5 at about 5:50 a.m.
It quickly built to a 6-7 and lasted about an hour, with bad spikes.

I filmed this one.

Any film I make will never capture what he's really feeling. Just like how trying to describe a dream is quite useless at actually communicating what it was like, I fear that whatever I do is not going to be able to get across how horrible it is, because the nature of the medium doesn't allow for it. I don't want to do it if I can't get it right.
