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."

A belated good morning Gunner 
as a miracle occured and I got a solid 4 hours in, so am replying now.
Firstly, I hope you managed some sleep too my friend, as yesterday must have taken it out of you, but I say raid the fridge at will - I was slurping a Cornetto at around 12.30am 
That's a good move to get settled in the prostate group too, as they're a fine gang and our Brian's there to keep that show on the road as well.
I took a peek at your profile and found you are indeed ex forces/police. Ray already expressed his interest by relating his parents affiliation to the services and I've got one too, as my dad was Royal Artillery during WW2 and known as Gunner (surname). He was a drill sergeant aged 19 and in charge of an anti-tank unit in several campaigns. They had to grow up pretty quickly during that era!
Hey Gunner, you also made it apparent that your wife will be your rock, which is the best foundation you'll need for your own journey, so my very best to that lady. You're off to a cracking start!
You make sure to have the best day possible and enjoy family, food and the rest. Me? I'm going to visit my eldest, take her some treats and hopefully OH along too, as he's not seen her for quite a while - one of my tasks is to get him integrated back into life after the tough times he's had.
Sending you and your family love and strength xxx
Great stuff Gunner.
Magnums - Yes!

Morning all
We're sitting in the shade and will be going round to our friend's pitch soon to celebrate her Dad's (also a friend of ours) 80th birthday. She's admitted that she thinks she's over catered massively so I could be in a food coma later
