hello friends

[mama sue]

Just sitting here having a bit of a rough night and wanted to say hi. How are you all doing? I know that grief can hit at any time, anywhere, but it always seems to hit me hardest at night. I relive things over and over in my mind...Does anyone else experience this?

Sorry you're having trouble sleeping. I think it's pretty natural to have these thoughts after the day is done and it's quiet and sometimes our brains start overthinking. I'm always a bit of an overthinker in the night hours. I was just going down the list when I came back on the computer and saw your message 'cause I recognized your name. Hope you get some sleep soon, mama sue. Thinking of you.

I remember talking to you about the link to the Norrie forum and how the links all went to a dead link of the mgh site... not sure if you remember that? I just had a look, and I see that no-one's been to visit there yet.

Thanks Lara,
I do remember you and our conversation. Norrie is so rare that I don't expect a lot of people to respond, I try to keep the site open here just in case!! How are you doing? I'm thankful to know that my troubles at night are not uncommon. I guess I expected it to get better, but it hasn't. Thanks for your kindness.

Hi Mama Sue,
Did you finally get some much needed sleep?
I'm in Australia so it's Monday morning here. I woke up at 3am which is beginning to be the norm for me lately. It's 4.11am now and I couldn't get back to sleep so figured I'd get up. My mind is ticking over for a lot of reasons. Mainly because I worry too much lol.
Thought I'd check in here to see if you were OK.

I hope you'll be able tocatch up with your sleep. Sleep is also important in times of grief.
