As hard as it was to cancel our plans for a girls only trip, I knew I wasn’t up to it. Until I’m over whatever I have, it can get better or it could get worse. Not only is it not worth going and feeling horribly but I don’t want to expose my uncle to whatever I have.
I was so looking forward to the trip but as it got closer to time and I still felt bad, I was dreading it and kept wondering what I’d do if I got there and got worse soo, I’ve done the right thing and trying to decide about staying or going is something I can stop thinking about.
Now that I’ve called it off, the fever is probably over and I’ll feel great.

You can start planning a new trip for when you are better. And it’s not so hot.
Teri says
Can you go another time or was this the only possibility? What did the Dr. say you caught that was contagious? Not covid or one of the variants, I hope. Nobody else in your family caught it so hope you’re feeling back to yourself 100%. Probably a wise decision to cancel the trip for now. Stay home and stitch while you’re on the mend.

It has apparently gone from allergy to sinus infection to bronchitis and as long as I was running fever, or had not been three days without fever, she felt it was best to not be around my elderly uncle. I am feeling better today so long as I don’t have fever. That instantly brings me down. Aspirins knock it right out but as soon as it comes back, I’m back to feeling bad.
Vince is feeling bad now. I’m thankful I’m better to be able to take care of him.
Teri says
Oh No, not Vince too. Hope he feels better by tomorrow. You both take it easy.
Tricia says
I’m glad that you are taking care of yourself. A trip filled with worry and potential worsening of symptoms would not be any fun. We out here in blogland need a healthy Judy to fill our days with crazy, fun, and informative blog posts!
Cindy F says
I’m sorry you had to cancel but it’s better to be on the safe side. There will be other opportunities and you need to be able to not worry about things and focus on yourself. Hope every day is a big jump on feeling better!
PattiLynn says
Rest and feel better! I can relate to how you’re relieved to have the decision made…not that you wanted to stay home, but the back and forth trying to decide is mentally exhausting.
Mary Ouellette says
Feel better Judy. I’m sorry you had to cancel your trip but sounds like you made the right decision.
Helen says
Not that you need my ok as to what you plan on doing, but as hard as it was to cancel the trip, I think you made the right decision. You really need to be as healthy as possible when traveling and visiting. Hope you feel better very soon and can plan for another girls’ trip
Rebecca says
As disappointed as you are, it must be a relief to give up the “will I, won’t I?” I’ll join the chorus of “better for you (and uncle) to recover.” I hope you get a chance to go before Addie goes back to school! (I figure that’s the biggest scheduling question.)

Eat some fresh pineapple and drink lemon ginger hot tea.
Judy Laquidara says
I’ve been eating fresh pineapple and drinking pineapple juice but have not been drinking lemon ginger tea. I’ll try that. Thanks.
