Hi guys it’s been a good few months, been a rollercoaster of emotions watching my daughter get married now waiting on the baby coming due September . I’m just terrified I’ll start going down hill and won’t be able to embrace all the joy
my back has been killing me for a good while I’m on the 7 day patches and im not finding them that great still having to take oromorph as a top up. Cant sleep tonight so just having a wee rant

Hi Angie. How wonderful to watch your daughter get married. Our eldest was married 18 months ago, and it truly was such an amazing day, a day that you feel lucky to still be part of. I can understand your concerns with a grandbaby on the way, but what a joy! It will be wonderful for you all.
I am sorry you are struggling with back pain, and everything always feels worse when we can’t sleep. I don’t know why we over think things when we are laying there trying to sleep, but sometimes it is so hard to switch our brains off! I have woke early again today, and have been laying here for a couple of hours, I hope you managed to get some sleep.
Thank you Chelle your right during the night our minds wonder hopefully get the back pain sorted and that’ll be me happy for another few months we really need to sleep
