Ginger,
I can relate with you. We just came back from a trip to Disney. I admit that at first I was very skeptical do to my husband's condition. So I was afraid to go. Also there were some people that wanted to come with us and I was a bit uncomfortable with that. But I tell you I am so glad they all came with us, I was soooo wrong. It was 8 of us, that included my son 4 yrs and our niece 8. And in-spite of my husband having temperatures every day, pain, neck problems, constipation, a bed sore, doped on pain killers, not able to walk well(we had to wheel him in a wheel chair everywhere we went ) ...... well we all had a wonderful time. We all connected and just laugh and all tried to forget about his cancer and fate.
So from experience I agree with you, everyone if possible should do something like this. Get a change in climate and surroundings, take friends and family with you and just have fun. It did all of us a lot of good including my husband. If we did it and I tell you my husband is very sick now, I think that everyone else can do this too.
Thanks for that Ginger! Take care, Aimeth
