My Busy Brain

Well I made it through another week of work, doing fine. Still have the sore right rib. I am considering trying to get a bone scan on my own through my PCP before I go to the NIH on Aug 8th, can’t decide. If it was to show something, I’ll still be waiting until the 8th but at least I’ll know why it hurts. I keep going backand forth, don’t even know if I could get one done before the 8th.
I’m thinking about planning a vacation…haven’t personally had one or been able to afford one since my diagnosis/treatments started over 2 years ago. I want to chose a date and plan it and invite family members but I’m worried about what might happen to me in between now and the time to go as far as treatments…I’m sure I’ll be here but in what condition. I won’t go unless I can fully enjoy it. I don’t want to have to stay close to a bathroom, stay out of the sun or any of those things associated with treatments. Guess I’ll have to purchase travel insurance…
Thinking about an all-inclusive in the carribean…pretty much narrowed down to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic or Aruba…any input is appreciated. Considered cruising, been there, done that. It’s OK but the bar bills were crazy. I’ve never done an all inclusive but they make it sound very appealing. I want to be able sit under a palm tree in the shade with my wife or lose my money in a casino with a drink. I don’t ask for much. I just need to give my Brain a break!
