@rosemarya We are, as I have mentioned, going to Denver to visit our son on Superbowl weekend. This has been a father-son tradition for about 10 years now, no matter what teams are playing. We are disappointed of course that Patriots have been eliminated but it will be fun regardless. I used to not go, thinking it was a good father-son bonding time, but when his current wife became a part of it a few years ago I figured I might as well go too, and now that he is in Denver he has a spacious house so we can stay with him, not in a hotel. We leave on Thursday, January 31st, and will be back on Wednesday, February 5th. We actually are flying on the 4th but getting in to Manchester pretty late in the evening.
I almost always wear a mask when flying. I skipped it once but I definitely wear one during flu season. For others flying who need protection, there are masks that have an anti-viral coating so that is the better one to get.
We hope to go somewhere warm in March too. Where has not been decided yet. We have been to the Caribbean two times and enjoyed our type of lodging - small buildings right on the beach. The picture is looking out of our building in Antigua. That's impossible to find in Florida so now we are considering going to Antigua again. I'm a little bit nervous about the possibility of getting sick in a place with medical care that is not up to our standards but we will hopefully get insurance so if a problem arose I would be able to be airlifted back to the US.
Have any other transplant patients traveled to areas like the Caribbean? I think I will need immunizations if we go since my immune system is so compromised. I would be very interested in hearing about others' experiences.
