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

    Ha ha ha no matey the brain transplant failed miserably,
    Ok buddys heres the deal and I cant believe Im telling this on public forum, cos he may be reading, but you lot know I may be mad but Im also honest,

    Listen very carefully and I will begin......................

    My man and I set up home in Portugal before DB became ill, infact I still have a wardrobe of clothes there, I dropped everything no man or home become before my DB, I left the lot to care for her, she was soo worth it, how lucky am I that the man in question never forgot me ??? ( mind you always knew I was something special ha ha ) DB was my all, you my friends know that in the way I talked about her when she was alive,
    So this maybe a re-kindling holiday, hope so, but maybe my careing months have made me change? hope not
    I would like to get MY life back now and know full well that is what DB would want for me

    Mates If I get back my life there my door is always open to any of you............love you all dearly,.......... and I would never ever of got through the last few months without any of you, but I aint leavin mac site, you are all such wonderful friends and my home is your home ok?

    Wow Ive been a little deep......but mates truthful
