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."

Thanks Gill. Settled in her now pretty much, if you can go that far to say settled!! Picc line in and in the room. I have a window thankfully but the Internet signal isn't good and the WiFi doesn't work!! So much for watching a year of Coronation Street!!
Had all my obs done and all ok. Just anxiety levels quite high as you can imagine. Young doctor said full recovery is long but to immunity (I knew that) and she said going back to work in a primary school might not be the best idea!! We'll see about that!!!! 
Room with a view!!!!
Hello 
folks. I am assuming my missing post didn't wander in overnight?
Will get back to that later. Ooh just for a change, today I have spoken to some lovely people on the phone. Ringing round for prices to get contentious scooter to Parky pal, only one geographically AND soocially distant bod. The others I wanted to make a brew and share 
. Actually booked with familiar scooter repairers for Friday morning.
P pal coming tomorrow for last visit before giving up car, so game of killer pool organised.
Ooh hotel Hospital could be worse Julie2468 you could have a view of the bins!
Gill H Stressy has just discovered why he put oven on after beers on Sunday ... he had put crumpets in there! So blackened they were invisible through the smoke!
Cheers
RayMK You could try putting a few posters on lamp posts like folk do for missing cats 
Cheers
Afternoon Julie
Well, the view. After enlarging your photo on my phone, and studying it for a few seconds, I must say it's not that bad my lovely. It's got clean contours and affords a reasonable amount of sky, so any exciting weather should allow your eyes to wander towards it and take in sun, rain, maybe sleet and hopefully fireworks soaring skywards if you're still incarcerated during bonfire 
night.
That takes care of your view and the reason I hailed it was because ours takes in next door neighbour's 'garden' when we leave the house. And from the upstairs windows. It's a rubbish tip, end of.
Oh Julie, make it your business to get someone to sort the WiFi as old Corries are a necessity, as is Netflix if you're planning on a binge fest. Do what you must - cry, scream, shout, threaten a hunger strike (even if you're not peckish) but it's a must for sanity reasons. If it's a big fat no way, get your crafting stuff out and fashion an indoor satellite dish. The reception could be a bit woolly though. Ahem, coat time.
Now the news that your obs are good is wonderful so hopefully that means treatment will commence when planned. Excellent 
Your determination to get back in the classroom is admirable, so that's a goal to strive for, but put that on the back burner for now. OH's decision to do the same was quickly thrown out, once he began to enjoy lie ins, regular meal times, classic Corrie and a host of other advantages. Of course losing his voice was a major factor but that slid down the pecking order when he discovered early retirement was a boon. Don't let me put you off hon, it'll be your decision only.
Now you must relax between whatever it is the docs and nurses will be doing, and make friends with them as every little helps. Look forward to hubby's visits and make damn sure he's keeping your house in order so it's a pristine palace for when you return home. Orders are orders.
Sending you hugs and love to your room and remember hon, we're all here whenever you want us, day and night xxx 
As long as you can get a signal!
Afternoon Gill

Well done for getting today's essentials out of the way.
Oh dear, a strike to contend with at the hospital. Here's an idea - fashion a banner for Ray declaring We Want Garibaldis! The strikers will be so flummoxed they'll part the ways and let you sail across the picket line. Well it could work.
In the meantime get tea, biscuits and feet up as there's still work to do up until Thursday. Being nosey, could you give us a hint what your business is? If I'm being too presumptuous, tell me to mind my own. I don't take offence.
Definitely treat yourself to some titbits in town tomorrow as you come first and that's how it should be. Big hugs sweetheart xxx 
Afternoon Shimmers
Great work on the scooter and I hope there'll be appreciative noises made in your direction. Do you reckon the chances are high?
Anyway, your 'Missing' posters is a fab idea - a pic of a forlorn Garibaldi with 'Has anyone seen this biscuit? Last known sighting on Tesco's mid shelf down the munchies aisle. Desperate for info and a reward of mummified large spiders covered in vacuum dust. Ideal for pet vipers.' underneath photo.
Crumpets in the oven? Eh? Stressy could scrape up the charred remains and use them as charcoal to do a Banksy on his outside wall. Perfect
And now I'll start getting the tea on, so laters kidder xxx
