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."

Hi Ray. My Mam was a doyenne of Vicks and Beecham's Powders. I especially loved to lick the paper that enfolded the powder as I thought it was really tasty. I still love Oxo and Bovril drinks to this day, and don't care about the salt content either. I like to live on the edge

Wow.
Hello Gill (Gill H)
I watch my football team who play at the 2nd highest league football stadium in England. Boundary Park (Ice Station Zebra!). At each home game I without fail purchase a Bovril (£3.00). It's something to look forward to as the result isn't always isn't that good!!
There's nowt like a steaming Bovril on a cold day watching football!
Best wishes - Brian.

Hello Gill (Gill H)
Someone sitting close to me brings in a flask of Bovril - infused with Rum - and judging by his face colour the split between the contents is beginning to look like it's more like Rum with a touch of Bovril .........

Kind regards - Brian.
