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."

Helloooo! Will the gremlins raise their heads this evening?
How we all doing? Catching up I was concerned to see @Soc say 'I have water in the bottom' 
then was relieved to find it's in their fridge!!
@Gill H I was trying to say last night that you escaping into other worlds is like Mr Ben trying on the outfits. Never understood that shop not pointing out he never bought anything.
Awe glad @kez is feeling a bit better.
Ooh @Ray 'night time starvation' was a thing yesteryear ... do you know which product used this serious concern in its marketing?
Cheers
. I had the same concern as I read Sonia's post!
Not heard of night starvation. What was the product which milked the concern?
Edit/PS: I meant to say that I hope the gentleman under your stewardship has had better news regarding kidney function and some indication of the treatment path. Kidney drains may be a fairly routine procedure but they're not very pleasant. I hope he is feeling and looking a bit more 'himself' after the unwanted and ongoing hospital episode. xxx

I don't think I saw that Mr Bean episode 
Anyway hon, if the gremlins rock up at yours tonight, I think I know how to conquer their antics with lost posts xxx
Well at least the words are there even if tagging isn't.
So this morning Stressy went to see Scooterless and said he would go back after lunch. Of course being a bloke he hadn't taken Scooterless's laundry from hospital and turns out he didn't want to touch it. The minging stuff he has his hands hands in unnecessarily makes this surprising. Told him to take a black bag and I would go up to sort it later.
After lunch however he discovered Scooterless was thoroughly asleep and told me not to bother going as he had left a note saying see him in morn. The pillock brought back the clean clobber and didn't leave the black bag.
I went to town and got specs fixed 
Stressy went to pub to 'relax'. Stupidly I walked back from town and called in to pub. I had cup of tea and realised Stressy wanted to get 'very' relaxed so I decided I was off.
Despite working in hospitality for years I really don't like being around folk under the influence. One of Stressy's traits is being very repetitive, one line! Over and over They can also fixate (may lead to rage), are in slight slow motion and have less precise actions.
I walked his dog, put kettle on then got phonecall. Scooterless had rung him and he was going straight up to the hospital. Siiiiigh! I said I would go too.
End of part one
Evening Ray 
How are you today my lovely?
Still liking your new furniture and negotiating the layout now? xxx
