Sorry I haven't got back to you sooner but my father passed away on the 2nd of this month so things have been a little rough here. Thank you for taking the time to write. As soon as I get my thoughts together I will write more. So far the pain has been a little better today. I have to go to the doctor in the morning so then I will know more. Hope you had a great weekend, the weather is nice here right now. Take care and God Bless. Tina

Hi Danielle,

I have fibromyalgia and arthritis and like you I suffer from insomnia. It drives me crazy. I lie there listening to everyone sleeping and just gazing out the window watching the night pass by. It just makes the next day so much harder doesnt it.
I hope you have a good week this week and I'll pray that we may both get a good nights sleep maybe !!
Blessings

Janette
