Safe travels and enjoy your visiting. My first 1 time out, my daughter and her wife were close enough for support and had contact with my friends wife, should something go wrong or just need answered. Meds, time zone same and fst adventure was great. My caregiver now is taking me places and helping like crazy. I miss the old me but I am making good headway. Have fun traveling. Seek you out on your return.

Hi @randallshields56

This is a great post about traveling. I appreciate you sharing about how you are making traveling work for you. While I don't have epilepsy, I do have other chronic health issues that require extra thought, medications, and supplies. Your post has provided me with a bit more courage to make traveling easier.

Good Morning Randy!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience.
I completely understand that feeling of missing who we used to be. But reading your words, I can see someone who is moving forward with courage and resilience!
Like you did, I'll have a very close support on this trip, my husband.
I'm looking forward to sharing how it goes when I return from these holidays.
Take good care of yourself, and thank you again for your kind wishes.
Chris
