Thanks for the info, Cherylk. I am really trying to be positive about it, and will will good thoughts to that area. I try so not to stress out about things, but tend to do it naturally.

Insomnia is horrible. I have had such trouble sleeping that now I take a very low dose of a muscle relaxant and that seems to help. I only use them at night and they have been a blessing for me.

My favourite island, without doubt, is the island of Mahe, in the Seychelles. I have visited and lived there and have many old friends from there too.
