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."

Now I never had rubber buttons ... As far as I know they had a sort of cross over neckline or ribbons.
Wonder if that influenced my latex allergy?.

How is OH now?
Your post explaining MILs calls only appeared today! 
How likely is it that she's ill? Also, what does she expect him and therefore you to do about it given she did very little in respect of OH's situation?
Cheers
Excuse the long delay but I got hambushed 
knew it!
First: Awwww, I love him without ever seeing him. The first thing that sprang to mind was a Telly Tubby but something rings an ancient bell and I think I know what you mean. Will try and find it in the wee hours.
Second: the hambush also brought up previously unseen one about mother. I'll post this now and reply on the next one if it'll allow xxx
The chances of her being genuinely ill are slim as she's the boy who cried wolf. Once, ages ago, she rang and got OH in a blind panic after announcing she'd discovered a blood clot on her ankle. ???Of course she then demanded he'd have to whizz her off to hospital immediately. He was WFH at the time so had to clear it with his boss and was told he'd have to make up the time.
Her self diagnosis turned out to be cobblers so panic and extra work hours were an utter waste of time. That wasn't the only time she pulled one of those out of the bag.
As for what she expects us to do won't happen - no transport any more and OH is in a worse state than she is, despite her senior age. If she thinks I've become a nurse as I'm keeping her son alive, she's got another think coming.
I hope OH hasn't inherited her traits 
as he seems ok now. But I'm in a quandary - A&E to be sure or ignore and hope nothing transpires. It would be so much easier if he could speak as much of the time it's guesswork unless something is outwardly visible.
