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."

Morning Helen, I'm so sorry I missed your post but I've slept almost 7 hours straight through, which is unheard of, I usually wake up at least 2 times which is "ideal", as I have meds to take at least an hour before or after food, and can then sleep through the side effects
Awww that's lovely your feline friends next door pop in, do they stay long or maybe get a treat now and then
, my little Jack Russell Poppy, is happy to play, or say hello to the local cats, but woe betide them should they fancy popping in.
The little ginger has a brother and sister and have already found a home, maybe she'll visit again.
love Eddie and Sheila xx
Morning all. The magnesium did its job and I slept well. I don't feel too bad this morning, so perhaps I'm getting used to it.
Ah Eddie, thanks for the kind words. It's hard when you lose something you love 
️ but it will ease. I'll post a picture which should put a smile on your faces. Sorry Gill you've seen it before but I'm sure you won't mind seeing it again.
Love to you all from sunny West Wales. Xxx
