Well here i am again at 4.30 in the morning and i can't sleep yet again!! My husband Darryl has terminal small cell cancer and, at the moment is going through a really good phase. Which, i would have thought, would set my mind at rest and enable me to sleep. But no, here i am again having had 2 hrs sleep tonight wide awake with mad thoughts running around my head!! This is driving me crazy and i just seem to be on auto pilot all the time. Darryl is 44 years old and we have been given a prognosis of a 2-3 year life span for him. I can't seem to let go of this thought, and maybe part of me can't sleep because of that, as i feel if i'm asleep i'm wasteing precious time!! Darryl is sound asleep and resting well, and if i stay upstairs next to him listening to his breathing, i keep thinking is this the last time i'll ever hear that and end up getting so uptight and worried that i find it better to just get up again. So i wander round the house do a few chores, have a hot caffiene free drink and will myself to sleep all to no avail i might add!! hahaha surely i'm not the only carer who never sleeps, or am i????? any comments gratefully recieved. Take care my friends and hope your all sleeping well. love and hugs mel xxx

  • MHM, of course you can pick my brains, (not that there are many, lol|) and want to wish you and Daz the very best for today's chemo and hope it does much, much better than the Docs are thinking.....

    Teresa, that is such good news about Michaela....so far, so brilliant! let's hope the rest of her lymphoma responds as well!

    Kate, how good is it that you posted, we were all so worried.....DB seems to be living up to her nickname?

    Rooster Mick, hope that you haven't too huge a headache!

    Kim, get well soon, dear chickie...

    Sue Butty.....hope all is ok with you today....

    Karen, hope you are battling ok with those sinuses still....and your clients too!

    Juls......I hope we will have a chat as we usually do, lots of p/ms.....

    Donna, I hope you are coping with your reduced mobility yet again, and am feeling for you.....it is just so unfair!

    to all other chicks.....hello and hope you are coping ok.....

    Wow ! head hurts today !!!

    Got hammered last night, woke up at 6 ish on the settee with a storming headache and a stiff neck !

    As well as posting jibberish here, I sent an email to my MP saying what a useless twat he is !!!!

    I haven't looked at my email yet ! - I'll have a look........

    Just checked it and have got a response asking if I really want to send it !!

    As it is similar to my last post last night, I think I'll re-write it without the wine influence !

    hey my chickies!
    Daz had his chemo did really well!
    So proud of him!
    he's sleeping again now and having a rest.
    Dr Shah wants daz bloods done every week now starting from next wednesday and we have to wait at the onco dept until the test results are back before we go home.
    I hope you and your loved ones are all well and that you're having a good day so far?
    I will post again later
    love and hugs all round
    love your MHM xxxxxxxxxxxxx
