lincslady Posted September 16, 2021 #11678 Share Posted September 16, 2021 It is obviously more difficult than some of us can cope with! However, I hope that next Thursday my grandson Johnnie will succeed in putting my wine glass on for me, so if you could wait until after that, Lois, or use one of your other choices, that would be good. So glad to hear that your Doctor is pleased with you! Lola 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooooh, this hits too close to home!! My darling cat does not scratch any other furniture but for some reason managed to ruin a recliner by stretching and sinking his claws in...many times. I've been looking for some type of slipcover to put on it so I can donate it to someone who can use it (first acquired it for use during recovery from surgery a few years ago)...

I travel because I am able and as long as I am able I will continue to travel😃.....I don't have anything that prevents me from going.....and to be honest, I don't feel bad at all......they are just issues that have happened to me in the past few years.

That said I have noticed on other forums the USA traverlers don't find not having insurance a issue ...

QueSeraSera Posted September 16, 2021 #11690 Share Posted September 16, 2021 I also find the insurance issue confusing, I think the decision process regarding traveling must be very different from here in the US to our friends in the UK Australia NZ & EU. 2 minutes ago, Lvshack said: I have noticed on other forums the USA traverlers don't find not having insurance a issue So I just checked mine. Underneath all the legal mumbo-jumbo I think I'm partially covered for overseas emergency visits, but better fly home for surgeries etc. Of course this after a glass of really good sauvignon blanc from NZ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mysty Posted September 16, 2021 #11691 Share Posted September 16, 2021 We always get travel insurance with medical coverage especially for our longer cruises. Even traveling to the US now requires additional coverage since our provincial health insurance does not cover the full cost of any medical treatments outside the province. We have no pre-existing conditions and the cost is still high. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you were referring to Medical insurance. I meant was there something specific you were asking me. I have not found any issues with purchasing it. Not sure what to tell you. Yes, I have certain health issues but none that prevent me from cruising.🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eons ago when the kids were younger I made peanut brittle for the family with a recipe involving a microwave. First time I made it I used a glass bowl. Worked beautifully. Second time I made it, in my infinite stupidity, I used a plastic bowl. When I opened the microwave the bowl had melted along with the caramel and peanuts to form an oozy mass of goo in the microwave that immediately started to harden. I was in tears and cursing my huge mistake. Myster took the kids into the front yard so the neighbours would know that he wasn't beating me. 🤣 This is life with Mysty! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QueSeraSera Posted September 17, 2021 #11697 Share Posted September 17, 2021 The stories we all could tell on ourselves. All of us need to stick together, stay good people, although it's a hard life wherever you go (or wherever you're from) so be forewarned here comes one of my favorite songs 😉 This Texas belle recently passed away, but her music lives on 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That MedJet one is not that expensive but since Covid have not cruised since Nov. of 2019 and I was in China. Yikes! Not sure what their Covid plan is now. I get that plus regular insurance. When we went to Antarctica with Ponant and they required a physical along with evacuation insurance. One man died on our cruise the 2nd day. I can only imagine the costs involved if he did not have the required insurance for the family in France. We have no preexisting conditions, but I am risk adverse and would not want to be stuck and not able to be flown back or at least be in a reputable hospital. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were on a lengthy cruise and a gentleman collapsed at our second port with a heart attack. His wife was left to struggle in a foreign country, not knowing the language and without health insurance or travel insurance because it was pricey due to his pre-existing condition. This is the stuff nightmares are made of! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
