Because of Hurricane Ivan, we did not get to see Cancun or Cozumel, that was fine, just as long as we spent time together. We had so much fun, the food I ate had nothing to do with the IBS diet, I chomped on Equalactin, and Levsin. I did great most of the time, the next to the last day, I started running to the bathroom. I did not mention it to my mom and sis, I did not want them so worry about me, we allready had enough on our minds. Mom did great, we spent the mornings doing what she wanted to do, then after lunch she would have a nap, and we would then go to dinner, and she would hang out with us for a while, then back to bed. (Her fatigue was really worrying me, she was laying in bed watching movies and reading her books). She went into Port twice with us, the heat was just too unbearable for her. There was not much to see or do, the 2nd port, was filled with citizens who hate Americans, sooooo we went on back to the ship. The cruise line has heard from me on that one!!
When we headed home, the swells were 24', many people were ill, we made it just fine. The skies were sunny, we ran around the Gulf Of Mexico getting away from Ivan.
In spite of it all, we accomplished what our trip was all about, spending time with Mom. She had so much fun, and we did too, wouldnt trade the experience for anything.
My costrochrondritis dissapeared the 2nd day, I was having such a great time that I didn't realize it until the day we came home. Yayyyyyyyyyyyyy!! Hope it doesn't come back, ever.
We are now working on getting Mom a new Dr. in Houston and going from there. Prayers will be appreciated.
To all of you who posted to me last week, I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your support. It meant the world to me to come home and find them. {{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}}} to you all!
