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."

Aw thanks Sonia 
️ Yes, we're both ok lovey.
But Ray, sensible? Did you read about his dabbling to concoct a roll up when he was 13? I was shocked to the core, always having been as pure as the driven snow all my life.
I can join you in the letter tower though, as there's one on our sideboard untouched but added to every time the postman comes round.
Good to hear you're feeling more like it hon xxx
