Writing for Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, Diane Mapes (@double_whammied) explains why cancer disrupts sleep and what cancer patients can do to regain good sleep if they find themselves tossing and turning all night. She talks to an expert about the health benefits of a good night’s rest and why patients should talk to their doctors about sleep concerns. Mapes grounds her piece within the stories of two people with cancer who found their way to better zzzs. Image: Jonathan Soren Davidson for Disabled And Here via Wikimedia Commons
