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 Dingg 
Don't do too much, love. Our house became a giant cobweb during OH's time in hospital. Same as yourself, I was too knackered and quite poorly to tackle cleaning when I got home from visiting.
A week or so before his discharge, OH's CNS told me two of the team would be paying a home visit. I flew into a mad panic and cleaned like a lunatic every night when I got home. Being winter didn't help as it was dark before I got here.
Don't worry if you have any of that Dingg, as they won't expect a show home and you need to rest up lovey xxx
You're going through alot.It's not surprising that it catches you out. All of this catches me out sometimes. I just get fed up out of nowhere. I think as a carer you feel like you've losing little bts of your loved one and your life. I know this sounds so selfish when our other halves are going through the worse time. Loads of love to you and hugs.
