A very HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO @dfish

Good morning to all. Thank you to Sandi, Roy, Vanessa, Debbie, Ann, and Dixie for all you do to keep the Daily and Fleet Report going. Interesting Days to remember and the quote is funny. i will pass on the food and drink today and I have not been to the destination. Yesterday was a much better day for us and that made life around here much calmer. We needed that. We never got to Costco on Wednesday as planned so we will try to do that today. @RMLincoln Maureen, my condolences on the passing of your DSIL. Glad all went well with DH’s procedure yesterday. @smitty34877 Terry, prayers for you and Tana and your family. Glad you had some help with your NH family and some time visiting with them. @ger_77 prayers for your DH @JazzyV Vanessa, I am thrilled that you have pain relief after your surgery. @rafinmd Roy, looks like the medical report is trending in the right direction. A good thing. @grapau27 Graham, thanks for the explanation of our days to celebrate. Cheeers to all celebrating and cruising. Hoping all have a wonderful day. God Bless, Terri

Good afternoon, Tried to post earlier but was unable to get connected. I will post more later but just want to give you an update on where we are I was able to finally get in touch with the doctor’s office today. We have an appointment for May 23. It was the earliest available. Better than Oct. 17. I was also able to speak to his nurse, who gave me her direct number for the future. I explained how I was trying to use the portal and that my messages had delivery failures after two days. After a week of this I was so frustrated that we ended up cancelling the trip. She told me the portal doesn’t work. Gee, what a surprise! I also told her that we were not sure how to administer the meds. She explained it all and I was satisfied with her answers. She was very nice and helpful. It is just too bad I couldn’’t connect with her sooner. Anyway, at present, DH is calm and does not need any of the meds. Only to be administered at the lowest possible dose when needed. So we are good to go on that. I am feeling better about the whole thing and doing better today. Thank you all for your advice and support. God Bless, Teri

Thanks Debbie. I know. We did the best we could at the time. Thanks for your support. Terri

I am not sure if it is the doctor or the staff member who relayed the message. I just know that this medicine is highly addictive and we have gotten no guidance on how to take it. I am not happy. I am going to try to get to the doctors office tomorrow and see if i can see him. There is only one other Neurologist in the area and most of his patients want to move to the one that Jim has. Not moving to another yet. Thanks for your support. Terri

I have had a horrible day. Last Thursday I made a call to the Doctor to ask for some help since DH was having anxiety issues about going on the trip. i also sent a message through the portal. There was no response. I again made another call and no response. Then last evening at 5:40 there was a call from the pharmacy to pick up some meds. I didn’t know if it was for DH or me. Well it was anti-anxiety meds for him. No phone call, nada. Too little too late. I am livid. If the response had been timely, we might be on our way to Rome. Instead i am just so angry at the way things turned out and not let DH feel he is to blame. I have cancelled everything and maybe I jumped the gun by doing it so quickly. Thanks for letting me vent. Terri

Good morning everyone. Happy Wednesday. Thank you to Sandi @StLouisCruisers for stepping up and filling in while Rich finishes up his cruising and Jacqui gets to start a new journey. Thank you to Roy @rafinmd for the maps, Vanessa @JazzyV for the lists. I hope you are still doing well and feeling better. Prayers for you. Thank you to the ladies in the F&B department. To Debbie @dfish for the meal recipe, to Ann @cat shepard for the wine expiation. I agree that it is a bit above my budget, and to Dixie @summer slope for the drink recipe. I like Mimosas and hope to have one soon. I have not been to the destination. Interesting quote and all three days are worthy of celebration. Well, today is the day we were supposed to drive to Jacksonville in preparation to fly to Rome tomorrow. To sad that I am sad would be an understatement. I had everything planned out and feel like the rug has been pulled out from under my feet. I am in the process of unpacking and putting everything away. I am trying not to show my disappointment too much, but it hurts. Thankfully, every reservation was refundable and we did not lose much money except for a few museum tickets, etc. that we bought. Today we will probably go to Costco for some essentials. We had put off going until our return from our trip, Since we’re not going, we might as well get our necessities. Prayers for all on the cares list, and cheers for those celebrating and cruising. Have a good Wednesday., God Bless, Terri

Good afternoon everyone. Thank you all for your concern. We are doing the best we can. @JazzyV Vanessa, I am so glad the surgery seems to have been successful. Also thank you for including me and Jim on the Cares List. i am trying to get in touch with the doctor so that I can see where we go from here. I felt that all was well with the last visit. Guess we all missed something. I will post more later. I have not read all the posts today but will do so. Just wanted to check in and check on Vanessa. Thanks to all for your support. Terri

Good evening to all of you. Thank you for all your words of encouragement. We know we made the right decision and will move on. Thank you for all your prayers. i don’t think I have the wherewithall to mention all of you but I appreciate all your kind thoughts and prayers. God Bless, Terri

Good morning to all. Sorry I did not post yesterday. It was a hard day for us. We made the difficult decision to cancel our trip to Italy. I am not going to go into detail. We just decided that it was more than DH could handle right now. Thanks for your understanding. Terri

I will post more later. However, I want to wish all the best to Vanessa @JazzyV. I hope the surgery is successful. Prayers for you and the surgery team. Terri

Thank you Denise. We plan to have a good time on our trip. This is not a cruise but a three city jaunt of Rome, Florence and Venice. We are very much expecting to have a good time. Terri

Thanks Debbie. We have had meetings with them and the omplaints fall on deaf ears. The contract is for ten years and it keeps getting renewed by the board. Hargray gives the community money and then charges the residents a fortune. i could go on and on. i don’t know why the board keeps renewing the contract. Believe me, we have voiced our complaints over and over again. Terri

Hello everyone. The WiFi is back—for how long, I don’t know. Thank you to Sandi and Vanessa for your thoughts. Yes, i plan to give Hargray a piece of my mind. The problem is that Hargray contracts with the community as the exclusive provider and you then do not have a choice. Spectrum is in the area but they will not service you if Hargray has an exclusive contract. Hargray is very expensive, but getting a dish is the only other choice,. However, one drop of rain and the dish goes out. Not very good choices. Hargray knows they are a monopoly and they really don’t care if you have service or not. You can yell and scream all you want and they will just do as they please. I would like to call them a few names but this is a public forum and I don’t want to get sued. Just so you understand what Hargray is. The “Leader in LowCountry Comunications!” Terri

Sandi, I started to fill out the survey when the service dropped again. I don’t want to call them right now because I just don’t have time for them to show up in my house. This has been going on for about a week.
