Default TRAVELing with tos

Any advice traveling?
TRAVEL KILLS ME!
Got my meds, Edgelow products being mailed to my bro's, called wheel chair at each AIRPORT stop.
Maybe I should have asked for the motorized cart for my hubby and the luggage????

Sure...hope your trip goes well for you! I'm still trying to figure out what to do to visit my son. I asked him to check around for someplace I could rent a recliner and move it into a room temporarily. I think your wheelchair idea is a good one, and motorized cart if you can get it!

Happy travels...take care of yourself, don't overdo!!!

Hi Cyndy,

I'm Bumping this up.. Do you have anything you can add to it since your airline travels back in Feb (?)... I have a wheelchair set up at the airports and my favorite small squishy pillow...

Or if anyone can add anything else that would be great..
Thanks so much

Dawn

Default traveling

1. preboard with the people with children, the elderly

2. take your DMV handicapped placard

3. Valium taken sparingly really helps with muscle spasms

4. a microwaveable lavender heat pack for painful spots
or a heating pad

5. about $10 in one dollar bills to tip people for handling your luggage, etc

6. take for meds for migraine and for symptoms that flare when you are stressed

7. I like curbside check in
