Are you having trouble sleeping?
Sleep problems may be caused by how you’re feeling emotionally, or as part of the side effects for cancer treatment. If you find it hard to have a good sleep, you’re not alone. The Online Community is here to support you 24/7.
“Getting a cancer diagnosis is extremely stressful, and that brings a whole load of emotions, and lack of sleep certainly does not help. I think many of us have periods of insomnia. I experienced a long period of not sleeping. I could go off to sleep quite quickly, but after an hour I would find myself wide awake again, and would spend the rest of the night getting frustrated because I couldn't sleep."

That's such a heartfelt bit of support. I don't know what to say.Loads of love ️️️
I feel your worry through your words-it’s incredibly difficult for carers to watch what we go through-wanting to fix things and being unable to.
One of the most commonly used phrases my OH says in this house is “I’ll sort it”. When I got cancer neither of us had any control over what would happen and we were at the mercy of others trying to “sort it”.That’s really hard, so we can all understand the pressure you are both under right now.
Sending a big soft hug xx

I know you understand. It shines through your words. It will be what it will be and we will rise to the challenge.
