I thought I was have a medical emergency. the bed shook in tremors a little, woke me up .... than it shook a lot in a viberation type fast movement. I could not move than had notice I was not getting air . I ask the MD about that. I was not sure it was an earthquake till later. I felt I could not move. wierd.....
