Help!
by Debra White
I'm completely trapped.
A prisoner in my own home.
It's no use me shouting for help; I'm home alone and nobody will be back for hours yet.
I'll just have to wait for someone to come and set me free and pray I don't suffocate in the meantime.
I hate small spaces. I'm wrapped up like a mummy and the panic is setting in.
My heart is trying to break out of my chest, I can hardly breathe and I need air.
The harder I try to get out of this stupid duvet cover, the more stuck I'm becoming... Help!

It's happened to me more than once. Changing duvet covers is not a task for the faint hearted!
