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."

Evening Derek.
This is true, my mam didn't have a washing machine when we lived at the farm and washed everything in the tin bath before hand-wringing the lot, even sheets and blankets.
This is truer still - she didn't own a washing machine till she was in her 80s, just a spin dryer. The women were made from granite in those days

Evening Frazzled 
Oh dear, things are pretty grim for you right now hon. But, if you tell your GP everything you've told us today then maybe they'll have answers to some of your problems, fingers crossed 
It's the best way to try for respite.
We've got a member here, Shimmer, who's really switched on in giving advice about lots of things, so I'm hoping she might nip in tonight.
Hopefully your GP will know who to put you in contact with regarding the assisted living arrangements.
Well I think you're very kind, taking on your little chihuahua after a bad experience with previous owners. I'll bet he's not mean with you
