Awake and up all night

Meant to say enjoy your meal and the gig.xx

Evening Sonia ️

How are you doing today hon? Much more like yourself hopefully xxx

I am tired Gill but feeling much better now I have got that big operation out of the way  it was constantly stressing me. I suffer with anxiety anyway without any added stress. I feel like a big weight has been lifted off my shoulders. How are you my lovely? Always a pleasure hearing from you.xxx

Aww, that sounds tough Uki. It's probably meds related and all the stress of what's happening.  Can you talk to her doctor?

Remember, you're not moaning. Everyone is here to support. Take care xxx

That's so good to hear my lovely, and yes, I think we all realised how much the pain and worry about your surgery was adding to your anxiety. I said it before but you sound transformed since you got it done and dusted. I know you've got RT to come but I reckon you'll conquer that too, knowing it will help you further on the road to recovery.

You already sound different so a new woman is likely on the cards in the coming months. Can't wait!

I'm still a miserable sod but there's a condition called SAD, seasonal affected disorder or some such, and I've got the summer one. It's doing my head in lovey, but I'm trying really hard to keep my irritability in check xxx

You are not miserable Gill. Yes I was going crazy thinking about that op. The Rt doesn't worry me. Had it before for breast cancer. Some of the side effects can be nasty. I remember I was really tired and felt drained. I know I got diarrhea . I couldn't even talk about my op without getting all worked up. I don't know how everyone put up with me. I was a miserable sod.xx

 No you weren't but you can join my club if the heat makes you that way out.

I'd forgotten you've already had RT. Silly me but you might not get the same symptoms this time round as the beams will be on a different area. OH's main symptoms were a couple of burns on his neck, nothing serious as I treated those, and chronic fatigue. I think he's still got it, 15 months down the line, as he still has a midday nap and a full night's sleep. Bone idleness can be added into the equation, mind.

I let him get on with it, as it doesn't cause problems and gives me a break. All good xxx

I remember it took me about 12 months to recover. I am glad your OH is getting his rest he must need it. My son had it on his neck and that went red. The heat has got to me this year. I am praying for rain.xxx

Oh crikey, Sonia, me too.

We were watching Look North earlier and I almost burst into tears when the weather report said just a bit of light rain on Saturday. I bet we won't even get that. I yearn for dark skies and downpours and I'm not kidding one bit. xxx
