am I crazy
I am going to drive 5 hrs this Friday tx night, to Moyock NC to meet Carol a woman I met on myspace and after talking to daily have decided we are love with the person we've been communicating with. She knows I am on tx, and my situation with sx and such. She has worked in the medical field a lot of her life is presently the main tech for an orthopedic surgeon. She has invited me up to stay in a 8 bedroom resort house at Sand Bridge Beach in Virginia. Her nephew is getting married that weekend and I am invited to that, to meet her family, 3 daughters and enjoy the beach with her and get to know each other.
We both have really worked this over in our minds and so forth. She doesn't want it to be awkward and wants us to really fall in love, not just love each other, but the whole nine yards. I have always felt we were soulmates.
We will be together not in the same room from Friday until Monday. My concerns are besides the obvious is my sx during tx, also my essential tremors rear their ugly head at a moments notice moreso through tx.
I just want to make her feel good and it was worth it and go from there.
The most I have driven since being on tx is about 45 minutes. I have never driven to Moyock NC, which is near Elizabeth City. I hope there are a lot of pitstops on the way.
I really don't want to cause her any unhappiness, or pain. I don't want to kill myself doing this also. I guess if truelove is afoot we'll get through this, I guess I was thinking when we planned this that I would be well into tx and not experiencing these sx.
Anyway, am I crazy, It is a fool that looks for logic in the chambers of the human heart.
Peace and health
This the first time I have attempted anything like this really in my life and going through tx.
I have fears and try to give them to faith, I guess the main one is what if we don't click, then I drive home. What if I am sick from tx, she said that I may have to sleep on a couch so i am not sure that I'll have my own room. I am thinking about the using the bathroom 8 times a night, excluding diarrhea.

The 5-hour trip must have been brutal.
If you are planning a trip back and “The Big D.” problem is still an issue, you may want to consider contacting NASA. You may find some on EBay

NASA astronaut Lisa Nowak lifted off from Kennedy Space Center aboard space shuttle Discovery last July 4. Like all shuttle astronauts, she was wearing space diapers -- in NASA speak, Maximum Absorbency Garments, or MAGs.
MAGs don't generally get much attention, but this week they ended up in bizarre headlines after Nowak drove 900 miles from Houston to Orlando wearing her diapers -- according to police, so she wouldn't waste any time at rest stops on her quest to hunt down Colleen Shipman, an employee at an Air Force base near the space center.

Now if I could get back in the groove of dealing with sx in the morning then get to work on time I would be ok, gotta remember how much it takes to give and how long sometimes it takes to have something to give again. Looks like l will be a little late for work today, at least I'll make it if the big d will ever subside.
I'm glad this worked out for you. Even though I came out and said basically .. "are ya nuts???" :) I'm one who's always pushing limits but there was just stuff about this that I just had to throw in an opinion on. You took it very well and even tossed back with humour to my comment on chianti and fava beans...good on you. :) I'm glad that everyone was so understanding with you and that you were treated so well. I've done things on treatment that exhausted the heck out of me but that were also worth it and in the end, only we can decide ourselves and so you did. Again....I'm very glad this worked out well for you. Nice story. :)

Attitude
by
Charles Swindoll
The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life.
Attitude to me, is more important than facts. It is more important
than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances,
than failures, than successes, than what people think or say or do.
It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make
or break a company...a church....a home.
The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude
we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past...we cannot change
the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable.
The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have....and that is
OUR ATTITUDE...I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and
90% how I react to it. And so it is with you...we are in charge of out attitude.

Alright am out of work today, diarrhea, resting, sleeping, really tired, Hep Dr, finally called in my phenegran. I gotta admit I am really wasted, but the trip was worth it.
I did have to take that rest or nap, and listen to my body, or it might of quit talking to me if you know what I mean.
It showed me that we can do things in our state of health, but I would have died of exhaustion if everyone wasn't so understanding and concerned.
I am talking about the concern on this site also,
Thanks everybody
I wish my damn hemoglobin would get right.
