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."

You are such a classy and compassionate lady. Even in your moment of grief you're thinking of us. I think you're right, the love you felt for other transcends any barrier or obstacle, even the final separation. I know you will be suffering now, but I know you will be ok because you are so selfless and authentic. I reckon you've got loads of people who love youm How could anyone not lose such a gorgeous lady as you. I've said this before but I'll say it again - you're an inspiration. Please keep in touch on the group. As Gill said, you are a special lady. Loads and loads of love Ukiboy
