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."

Aw no Lynne 
is she the sister who's been helping you through your treatment? Life's so unfair but I'm not surprised you're not able to sleep, as you'll be worried sick for her. But it's for the best that she's having the scan, then the problem can be sorted sooner rather than later.
The best thing you can do for her right now is to get some rest, then you'll be able to see her sooner when you're well enough yourself. Wishing your lovely sister all the best and you try to relax and hopefully sleep my lovely. Big hugs to you both xxx
Morning all
I seem to be coming out of the other end of my heavy cold 
as I slept for just over 5 hours last night.
I've got a post treatment MRI scan this afternoon
