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."

It may get removed Eddie-the guidelines for the community are that we can only post pictures of ourselves if we want to, but not other people as they haven’t given permission and it’s an online safety thing.

Thanks Eddie She's taken her time finding the one as she's 38yo

My older daughter was 33 when she got married and my younger daughter is still at the engaged stage-nearly 33 now too!
I guess it takes longer nowadays to get established in careers and having better salaries to afford everything! So long as they’ve found the right one now, that’s the main thing.

Your welcome my friend, It must be the new normal to get married later in life, they do have 6 kids
, but as someone who has 4 kids and never married, what would I know lol, but we did try to get married twice over the last year, but cancer got in the way, and not sure there will be a 3rd time lucky, I have to say my new SiL is a wonderful guy, husband and dad.

I’ve been around in my own group Eddie, but not had as much time to be posting elsewhere. It is a shame when we need to remove happy photos, which are important to us, but I can understand why it’s done. I just stick with a photo of my little cat now!
You are always so busy, but it’s wonderful to be such an important part in the lives of oir grandchildren. I got a video the other day of my granddaughter’s first steps and can’t believe how many teeth she has now-how quickly they grow up.
That’s a lot of appointments for you-2 was enough for me yesterday and now another one on Friday-when I also have an appointment with my MP to discuss disabilities and the stance of the government etc. that should be interesting!

Hi Gill-I didn’t buy a hat-I bought a fascinator. Complete waste of money along with the new sandals and sparkly handbag, so all went in the charity bag afterwards!

Morning Gilly, my eldest is 52, and has no interest in even looking for Mr right, "or Mrs," she's very happy with her two boys, and being told she's clear of cancer, ooh I love a hat my friend, and weddings, was hoping for my own, with my partner of 18 years, but not to be
, but hey ho, who knows.
