ah yes LIFE! It's a thing isn't it? Can relate to a lot of this and the 3am think-storm.The sleep issue is largely down to renewing my mortgage and realising I have 17 years left still to pay on it. I will be nearly 70 by the time I'm done. With a diabetes diagnosis 2 months ago, and my dad dying recently, leaving me the oldest survivor in my parents' family line, the mortgage thing has just forced me to project 20 years into the future and contemplate my own mortality. Precisely the sort of thing that kicks in at 3am
These middle age years are challenging for sure. I suspect old age isn't a walk in the park either but I never would be a teenager again
I cried when I got the T2 diagnosis because it was yet another thing in the car pile up of things in my life. Honestly it looked like the Blues Brothers around here. Might be still does but I'm wearing shades (at night).
Hugs to you in what sounds a difficult time.
