Coping better today with cooler temps and lots of rain! Hugs to all x

Lots of rain? My, I think we’ve had about an hours worth since April here…. Lawn is brown, I keep trying to water but my water butts are beginning to get low too. 

Still, this next week (so far) suggests rain on the way.

We’ve had some rain and lots more expected in a couple of days. We are away for a couple of days so brolly will be necessary, maybe wellies might have been an idea too !! 

It’s been a bit drizzly today, thankfully, but seems to have stopped now.

I thought the Awake thread was for people who couldn't sleep. 

Wish I could sleep... I'm nearly 2 years post op for BC and I'm still shattered all the time... Wondering if that's normal! I get about 3 hrs sleep a night, and can't nap thru the day either. But hey ho, get on with it and hope for some sleep tonight!

Hi DMN welcome to this part of the forum. Is something on your mind when you can't sleep? I know a lot of people who have things on their minds have a book at the side of their beds to write down thoughts then go back to bed..If you look around the threads you will find new threads called "Awake and up all night" and they are very active if that's any use for you. I hope that you manage to get some longer and much needed sleep..Best wishes Gail x

Thanks.. I'll will give it a look.... Not sure what's causing it, but surely won't last forever!

So sorry, DMM, sometimes this thread has been busy with folk who can’t sleep, it’s a few years old now, but the lady who began it still has problems at times,   and may well see this and come to chat with you. Chemo has a rotten trick to play as the mix often includes steroids which, if you need to take after the middle of the day, can truly mess up sleep entirely. The one thing you need to take comfort from, is the fact that eventually it will come to an end and then sleep does return, eventually, to normal. I once had a really bad anaphylactic reaction to an antibiotic and needed I/v steroids late in the evening. Had no idea it had that effect and didn’t get a wink of sleep for 2 nights solid. Plus had a catastrophic meltdown when the steroids left my body eventually and wept for England! Sending you and all the Fruit Loops  on here some fairy sleepy dust in the hopes it might help, if nothing else, it will maybe help you relax about it all? 
rest up, anyway and try not to fret about it…
