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."

I shall not be having more than the UK Government State we should have a week which is 14 units!! (Although having been out Sunday afternoon and Wednesday night I may be close - Although just checking it's not a rule - it's advice!! 
).
I will be joining Ryder in some pork scratchings. Well it's only egg and chips for tea.!!
OK - it's not a very healthy day but I am walking to the pub so that's a couple of miles and if we go via the park and Ryder sniffs all the p-mails other dogs have left that will be closer to 3 miles.

They will look after her well Linda, so while I miss her, I’m glad she’s in a lovely place getting plenty fuss.

We had some liquid refreshment in the form of a jug of sangria before the coffee Brian! Now installed on the terrace drinking water. My diabetic nurse might well be having a stroke, but hey ho. Barraquitos are always my treat in the canaries!
Enjoy your reward after Ryder’s walk-we all need things to look forward to!

Have a fantastic time, Sarah! I'm sure princess Nyx will be having a ball
