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."

He must be a great comfort, and good company too. I've shown Pippin's photos to OH and we're sending him virtual pets and a good old fuss. Little champ

Bloods okay.

Having got myself into a right old state this afternoon, I thought I would try Ravi.
i lay down and eventually started to feel quite soothed….. then he started talking about individual cells…… being me, I started focussing on the cancer cells and started tensing up 
….
i then moved on to listening to some of his music, doing my normal relaxation exercises - that worked much better. It’s been so long since I listened to him…..so beautiful.
That worked well until Mindy 
came down and very vocally complained that I’ve been starving her and that she would collapse with malnutrition if I didn’t get up and feed her immediately !
He is so cute. I hope he is feelikg better with his antibiotics.
Here is my boy Elijah. Sleeping next to me whilst it thunderstorming.
