Not the answer to the question. But for me, right now there is not a chance that I will be traveling to far from my home. I understand my center is not only one out there but I don't feel comfortable enough to travel. Side note, last year during chemo treatment, my wife is asking the doctor if I can fly, I'm standing behind her waving my arms and shaking my head at the doctor. Best to all.

I was terrified about travelling to Europe for two weeks last June (my first overseas trip since 2019, before the Pandemic).

What if I'm tired all the time? What if there's an airline stoppage and I run out of cancer meds? What if they confiscate my meds at airport security? What if I need urgent medical care? What if I'm in extreme pain sitting in an economy airplane seat for 8 hours? What if my bladder-control problems come back and the seatbelt sign is on?

None of that happened. It was wonderful. Now you could barely hold me back from taking my next trip.
