Caregiver friends,
We are about to enbark on a 5 day trip to Vegas!! Whoopie!!!! Its a little scary as surgery was Sept. 14th. I am happy for the opportunity to jump back into living again. Our packing will be a little different, we will have a carry on with bag supplies. Gene strength is probably 70 per cent, still has some issues, but is willing to set his sites on fun and entertainment. He is wondering if his bladder bag will set off the alarms at the airport! Or if he will get the search! Maybe a few extra naps, no staying up all nite and will give the pool a shot if warm enough. This year 2007 has been hard for most people on the forum, I'd like to say I hope this comes true for you in whatever trip you can muster up. This is a big step for him, confidence is still a small issue. There are so many things it does to you, medically and emotionally, the bladder cancer. Family members will be with us, the ones who stood by me at the Cleveland Clinic through the surgery. Were not big drinkers but we love to laugh and try to come home with some money, maybe it will be our lucky day, to me everyday is our lucky day, we have our family, our friends, and our life, just with a extra bag!!!
