Not the way I wanted to end the cruise

Hope your Bil has a speedy recovery and hope your sister fairs well .

My Bill and I just went through a Ship medical situation where we had to leave the ship in St Lucia. Our out come came out good. Pretty scary though.

Princess were so kind to me end of last year when my mom died.

They really do come through when situations like this happen.:)

Bill has been in good hands all along and know he will be booking his next cruise soon for sure now........Love to all your family......Kruisey:)

Adding my prayers too ... like everyone else has said, make sure you and your sister take care of yourselves. You're such a vital part of this board and a very special lady. Praying BIL will be better soon.

In addition to regular travel insurance, my husband and I have MEDJETASSIST. This is medical evacuation insurance that will take you from where you are to hospital of your choice. Having seen many times that medical emergencies can happen to anyone and DO. It is about $250 A YEAR AARP rate and and good for all trips and all types of travel more than 150 miles from your address. I hope that I NEVER have to test it. It gives me comfort to know I have some back up help if I need it. I think you need both even though travel insurance does overlap some. Hope the day is brighter for Pam and family.

Pam here's hoping your BIL makes a full & speedy recovery. Our thoughts & prayers are with you.

I also am a firm believe in MedJet Assist. In Pam's BIL situation, once he was no longer in ICU, they would fly him home to a hospital of his choice (assuming his regular doctor would admit him) so he could recover there. When they transport people - they often do it in private planes with medical professional going with you.

 

In most cases, it would fly you home right away but it sounds like her BIL would not have been stable enough to fly and needed surgery ASAP.

 

Regardless, I encourage everyone to look into MedJet Assist.

Pam, you are in everyones thoughts and prayers...what a terrible situation. I hope he and the rest of your family will be ok.

It is so great that you are able to stay with your sister. That must mean the world to her.
