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."

Doh, yep, RSC has had it on various London runs since October 2022 with no plans announced to tour!
Cheers
Sending lots of gentle hugs. Very sad but glad he is surrounded by love.
Give OH a bear hug, it will probably be a very long night for you.
Take care
Tears in your airy MacBook will not help the tech situation. Here have a kitchen roll.
Well I think it's a combo of posts and posters not working tonight so I will wish everyone rest, peace and even sleep.
Take care
Well hon, tonight's not been great as you'll have guessed if you've read earlier posts about my very ill friend. I've actually just come away from the small group as his eldest told me all the family's there with him as they could lose him tomorrow. He's been battling for almost 5 years but the last few months have been bad and he's had several spells in hospitals. He's one of the kindest people ever and OH and me love him loads
This is sad news.
