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."

My son was doing a bit of gardening for me this evening. He stopped when the green bin was full after 40 minutes. The handsome beast he found asleep on the fence may appear if I can remember how to do it. They are apparently nocturnal, so I thought this sub forum was the best place for it. AI says it is a Privet Hawk Moth. It was about 1.75 inches long and wingspan about 3 and a bit inches when it fluttered to climb on to my son's hand. He took the photo.

Excellent-pop it on the dashboard when your niece gives you a lift. If my stepson gives me a lift I can use it then. We need all the help we can get!

It is so helpful being able to get parked closed to the shops etc. I am in my wheelchair if I need to go anywhere outside the house but I’m very grateful to have my badge. Then it’s just a case of finding a disabled space!

Hi and sheeeesh. Just when we have cracked spinning plates whilst walking a tightrope, we have to juggle too. That's what tedious, repetitive, gnarly admin is ... lots of folk would find it tricky but some of us are already stretched to capacity.
Doh, as I was late getting to pal's this morn (overslept having been awake till after 5!) I was scurrying along in my bondage boot when WHOOPS! Uneven pavement and I fell again! 
Boot mostly protected duff ankle, but with arm in a sling strap, that elbow hit ground again!!
I know! I need a nanny 
Being good and have retired for the evening. Might even sleep!
Enjoyed Chris and the green parakeets on TV. Anyone watch it in between football?
Cheers
