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 Soc, and there's nothing wrong with your spelling my lovely - we don't fuss even if there was as it's not important.
What is important is yourself and the brilliant way you're facing this latest knock back head on, so very well done you. I bet you don't look your age Soc, and I'd never have guessed it as you sound younger! I am a bit younger but look about 95 - I've been asked three times if I'm OH's mother and he's 61! I'm beyond feeling insulted now 
We're not too bad sweetheart, and once I've washed up we're going to watch the football - how we'll feel at the final whistle will depend on the result. Hugs to you hon xxx
Brilliant. That does sound good. Sounds like it has been caught in the early stages.
Not too long to wait for your surgery so focus on staying positive and getting better. You've got this girl!! 
. Keep us updated xx
Well done Brian and Ukiboy for letting your emotional pressure release work. I would add that if I saw one or both of you crying in the supermarket I'd keep a respectful distance as I walk with 2 sticks. A wet, slippery floor could easily have me tumbling, then you'd have tears of laughter as you watched a tangled mass of sticks and shopping gradually righting itself
