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."

Afternoon Amanda 
I'm trying to type this in a wobbly taxi!
Aw lovely girly, yet another thing now with your bad throat but really hoping the antibiotics clear it quickly and you feel well again soon 
Well we did eventually go shopping but only after text grovelling from OH, once I'd told him to go elsewhere! He knows not to mess with me.
Anyway, nearly home with the spoils - warm winter shirts for him and a bag of goodies from M&S complete with 2 cottage pies 
You take care sweetheart. Big cwtches xxx
Afternoon all
We're at another site on the river Loire
It's getting warm again.
Amandas I hope you feel better soon.

Thanks for another roving report Helen and it looks lovely at your latest pitstop.
It's pretty warm here, but I've been stocking up on winter clobber and warm socks! Gotta be done 
Keep having a fab time hon! xxx
Well done Julie. That's amazing. You're some woman for one woman. xxx
Having to wait for results is horrible. Every one feels sad sometimes so you are not alone. Sending love and hugs. xxx
Sorry to hear that you have a throat infection. Hope it clears up soon. xxx
Afternoon Me
Aw hon, I'm sure the prospect of having the dressing off is causing you anxiety but take a tip from Julie and tackle things one day at a time. Put the scan results to one side if you can, which I know sounds flippant but seriously hon, you'll know in a week and nothing you can do until then.
Now for tomorrow I'm sending you all the very best and hopefully gentle nurses. When my mam had her dressing removed from a single mastectomy she was glad to get it done as it had been bugging her with how tight it felt. I'm really hoping you'll feel better, and fresher, too. 
How's about making a soothing cuppa or another coconut coffee for a treat and a pick-up? Sending warm hugs and love xxx
