We just want to say how proud we are of you, Professor, and how touched and, well, honoured we feel that you trust us enough to tell us such difficult things (Oh, and also how much we want to chop Carrow up and feed the little bloody bits to a dragon, but let's just focus on you right now, okay?)
Where exactly in the castle are you staying? Does he keep you right beside him during the day? What's he spending his time doing? Do you have much freedom to move around? Are there any times that you can get outside?
It worries us that you're forced to use your wand even if he's asleep or drunk if you're right there in the room with him. Does he live in one room, or does he have a suite of them or something? It would be good if there was a way to turn your wand invisible, but we don't know of any way offhand. That might take more research, but we don't have any books here that could help us with that.
Maybe a trip to Diagon Alley is in order. Best not to take Mum along, because she'll wonder what we're doing in a bookstore during the summertime.
There are also sleeping charms. If you put a spell on him when he's already sleep so that you can guarantee he'll sleep for another twenty or thirty minutes for sure, that would be good. You could put a vibrate charm or something on your wand to give you a five minute warning.
