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."

Everyone does the same, hon. You're a special guy and that's all you need to know. We're lucky as that includes everyone here.
But lordy Uki! If you mean the lead singer he must be superhuman to go through all that and still perform. Huge thumbs up to him.
That will be a really smashing holiday you're going on and I'm envious as I've never been to Wales, but I want you both to enjoy it. Please would you post a picture or two as I need a holiday by proxy 
Have a wonderful time sweetheart xxx
Good Morning Ray (RayMK) and Gill (Gill H )
Brian probably isn't up at this time so he won't know till morning
No but he was up at 5.30 this morning - I had a job I needed to finish today as Lorraine (Mrs Millibob), Me and Ryder are off on our hollibobs tomorrow to East Sussex for a week in a dog friendly cottage. Plenty of walking, eating, drinking and chillin on the menu!
Yes, I can confirm there are plenty of "trigger words" on the Community. I don't have the full list but sadly it's the nature of the beast we are dealing with and it's very important we look out for folk who may be "at risk" of doing something that possibly is unhealthy.
It's very easy to understand that too, as 4.5 years ago I started my personal journey I was told I was treatable but not curable - then I was told I had a curative pathway and last week confirmed back to treatable but not curable. Now I an fine with that - it's something I have really have known all along and there are "plenty of tools in the toolbox" yet BUT for some folk that news can be devastating. So we do watch out and have plenty of help for them too.
Anyway - back to more important "stuff".
it's not his fault he lives on the wrong side of the Pennines.
May I remind you that in August 1484 - just who did win The War of the Roses
- Exactly.
Thanks Ray and Gill for all your support you give to others on this group, it's very much appreciated.
Kind regards - Brian.

Morning Brian

Chief, here's a peace offering but while the cat's away...
Talking of which, Ryder and yourself (dad) will have a superb time in East Sussex, I just know it! All those rolling hills, sea views and salty ozone, good food, no close proximity to Old Trafford...(Stop! He hasn't gone yet!)
Ahem, start again. Right my Lancastrian mucker and all-round good 'un, many thanks for your informative and warm post and make sure you have the best time with the faithful Ryder cos it's well deserved!
All our love from OH and moi xxx
Cheers Gill
You are a

no close proximity to Old Trafford..
My sat- nav avoids that place. Never liked them after Mark Hughes equalized in the 119 minute of our FA cup semi final at Wembley on 10 April 1994.
I started watching Oldham Athletic when they were almost bottom of Division 4, seen them become founder members of the Premier League and watched them play in the National League. Me, Sarah my daughter and Emily my grand daughter are all season ticket holders and are home and away for every match we can!!
Looking forward to our break in Sussex, meeting some relatives and also a Community member who lives down there from the Prostate Group. We intend to do plenty of walking, eating and a little drinking!!
Kind regards - Brian.

Brian, I know you're a Latic but thought of the worst thing in Lancashire and that was top of the list. Apologies to any devotees here but as you implied, old rivalries and hurty stuff runs deep.
Also apologies to Lorraine for not including her good self in your holiday. She'll need to be there to keep you on the straight and narrow, but won't that be fab, meeting up with a community pal? Cheers to that 
Hey, I won £55 at the bookies for predicting Spain to be outright winners before a ball had been booted. I sometimes get things right.
Hugs, champ xxx
Morning Steve 
Aw hon, sorry to hear you've got financial issues and I doubt anyone but a mouse could live on 53 quid a month!
I'm sure the good folk here will know better than me, but if it was me I reckon I'd start by ringing Macmillan for guidance first.
Hope you're all keeping as well as you can my lovely and here's a big Welsh cwtch xxx
