There is a thread operating on the Lived Experience Forum under Night Shift where members who are having trouble sleeping for any reason give a bit of a shout-out, to see if there is anyone else sleepless and looking for company. It's been such a great thing, I thought I would start one over here too.
I have had the odd few nights where I have woken up on and off, and my kids have been having a bit of trouble some nights too, depending on what has happened during the day.
Being a carer can be lonely too, so if you are making an after-midnight cup of something hot, and wonder who else might be doing that too, maybe have a look-in here and see if anyone else is about.

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?
Hi @Shaz51, Yes @Faith-and-Hope, i was taken back that petrol costs weren't addressed, and didn't know quite how to bring it up, and she's so unwell... My little chat with the Holy Spirit had me leaving this one with God but I decided I would have to make it clear next time as i really can't afford it (my car $60+). And I did get to see my S1.
BUT! we judge too soon, I just got a tx from her saying: "Hi, how are you today? I hope you are not too exhausted! Thank you very much for taking me yesterday. I had a great time with you. I meant to give you some money to cover the fuel and tolls. I will bring it Sunday to church" But my tx answer was "No worries, i liked your company too, glad to lighten your load just a little for one day at least. I'm ok thanks, had an early night and slept in, lucky I have time to rest up. Don't like exchanging money at church so maybe just fill the tank for me next time - then i can do it more often too. Are you tired yourself, from the chemo, or energised by the 2 blood transfusions? Admire your resolve to fight this as long as you can, we love having you round 💞 Ps145 "The LORD is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and rich in love" Think that was ok (hope).
Glad you don't mind my adventure detail, was worried it might bore some. Missed you over there today. When's WH expected back? Faith&hoping with you D3 gets that second chance. Be good to have it done & dusted.
See you on Friday Feast 💜💙💚💗

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?
@Anony18, sorry for misspelling your name before, you really don't annoy me lol. As for the cold, you'll get a lot ofct6ips here. I like the vicks, irish moss, lots and lots of continuous green tea (hot or cold) and a splash of turmeric powder on a tspn of honey - eases coughs and throat bacteria. Get well soon. Sweat it out. �💙💚

May I have a cuppa? It's busy on the other side of the Forums. Might have a tea-break in here. I brought some TimTams. Anyone up for slamming some TimTams?
