Awake and up all night

Struggling to sleep.overehelmed with waiting. Probable lung mets , awaiting appointment for possible removal. Feeling very negative.

was sent a link to the awake and up all night chat....messages look  months old tho

Still awake here. Not sleeping at all.

I’ve been awake too.  Feeling alone and scared.  Thinking of cancelling surgery tomorrow 

I wouldn't cancel! Talk to them about it tomorrow when you're there.  It takes so long to get these things booked in! 

I have a large family and good friends yet also feel so alone in this. Not finding any of it easy.

Morning Sheelagh.

I was going to send a message to wish you good luck for tomorrow - I'm going to add, please keep your appointment and speak to someone about how you're feeling.  Gardenshed is spot on and you'd probably regret going back to square one if you cancelled now.  Come on love, we're all behind you and we'll still be here when you've had your surgery.  It really is the best opportunity to get you on the road to recovery, so grab it and go for it!  Wishing you all the best and sending hugs xxx

Hi there.  I've just read your posts; sometimes it can be easier sharing your worries with an online stranger than family and friends, so if you'd like a chat, I'm listening.  Your advice to Sheelagh was great xxx

Was told 10 days ago by telephone need lung suspicious area removing. Was told will get an appointment  within the week. Emailed and called specialist nurses but still no appointment to discuss. Feels like forever.

My husband was losing his hair when we met. He started shaving his head when we moved down south 26 years ago.

I joked when I lost my hair that you couldn't tell us apart from the back
