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."

Oooh just catching up and along with the celebrations of good news 
I have stepped into a mushy pink puddle of love 
How lovely. Mutual support and a chance to say we have been a twit without having to wear a hair shirt. Although if that's your thing we aren't judgemental 
Cheers

Hair shirts are good if you've got an itchy back - or maybe not. Stick with a back scratcher xxx
Ooh I have been out too. An unexpected run to the beach with Parkinson's pal and their dog and Stressy and his.
We went further up the coast to Souter lighthouse. Big area of clifftop grass for chasing balls and the dogs can join in if they wish 
Parki's dog is timid and easily spooked by motorbike noise etc but it was going well so I unclipped lead. It was fabulous ... for 2 minutes. Stressy's dog was enthusiastically playing fetch when timid shot off in the direction of the road with me in pursuit. Fab workout for duff ankle. He then got on wrong side of wire fence and headed toward sea and cliff edge but I eventually captured him! Fuuuu!
Apparently he had seen a little white dog and he has a thing about them!
Reckon I earned that 
Cheers
