Awake and up all night

TThank you. I think my head is in the shed right now with not knowing what the outcome will be after having my op..

Just read your bio and it says your all clear now.. amazing  well done 

Hi Knat and welcome to our group.  Sorry to hear about your diagnosis and it's no wonder your sleeping is up and down.  But worry not, you've come to the right place if you'd like to chat around the clock as a few of us here also burn the midnight oil.  Hey, just talk about anything you like, no matter how daft it is, as it often takes your mind off other things.  Take good care and hugs xxx

Hi Knat  and welcome.

I see you’ve joined the cervical cancer group, so why not pop in and make a post to introduce yourself there? Lots of ladies have been through this surgery and would be happy to help.

Meanwhile, there is usually someone about for a chat in the night here if you can’t sleep.

Hi Knat, and a very warm welcome to the group, though I'm so sorry you find yourself here, your here with friends now,  who understand what a cancer diagnosis really means and how it impacts all your life, and that of the people you care about, and, as you say, your minds all over the place is perfectly normal. I'm sure you will have been through everything with your team, and I hope like most of us; knowing what's to come puts your mind at ease, even if only a little, can I ask if you chose open surgery or laproscopic, and was chemoradiotherapy discussed, absolutely no need to answer my friend; I myself am T4, treatable but not curable, surgery never an option, but my kids mum recently had cytoreductive surgery for ovarian cancer, she too was T4, her surgery took 9 hours; having 5 organs and part of her lower intestine removed, and was back on her feet in 2 days and last week we got the fab news she's cancer free, the 1st time in her family, this has happened, showing how much cancer treatments have improved recently and continue improving all the time. 

Every one on here has problems sleeping at times/ and for different reasons, medication, pain or anxiety, but most of us find a way to fight those demons and manage some sleep, and in time return to a normal sleep routine, and a big well done in reaching out for support, I'm sure you will find the girls, and a couple of guys, on here, both helpful and supportive, and maybe have a little fun along the way, they really are a lovely bunch.

love Eddie and Sheila xx 

Thanks. Just making my final recovery from all my treatment

Thank you for your support, means a lot. Im having open abdominal surgery and hopefully will not need chemo, but this will be finalised after the opall my organs are being removed e which is a scary thought, but I'm trying to be positive and thinking if it's all removed  so will the cancer.

Amazing that'.your kids mam was back on her feet after 2 days.. gives me hope that I'll be too! And the fact sh is now cancer free.. Amazing
