From the day Mike was diagnosed, and still ongoing I've struggled with insomnia. I haven't slept a full night in months. Like tonight, I just can't shut my mind off. Last week it was tears, and lots of them. When I can get to sleep, I usually wake up a couple hours later. Sometimes it was from a dream, sometimes a panic attack, other times it was for no good reason at all. I have 3 young kids. This, along with a couple hours in the AM when they are all in school, is the only time I have alone. The only time I really have to work through my emotions, my grief. While I know this is important, the lack of sleep is really getting to me. I hope this works itself out in time.
Any other night owls out there with me?
