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."

Sorry to hear little archie is so ill. Hope the hospital sorts him out soon.
Hi all
Just to catch you all up on my latest news. I went for what I thought was a yearly check up with my oncologist only to find that they wanted to talk about my latest tests. They sent a couple of samples of what they took last Friday to St James's Hospital in Dublin to see if I have either lung cancer or breast cancer metastasized to my lung. They are also sending me for a PET Scan in our local private hospital Whitfield. They also got me to get bloods done so it's looking like I may have to have chemo. Hopefully I'll know more next week.
Daisy, wishing you all the very best for whatever treatment may be in store, sweetheart.
Sending you love, hugs and strength, cherub xxx
