Thanks friends!
For all your great feedback, info and support!
I had a chat with my hubby today - I said "I still want to go to Canada" He said "Yes"! He doesn't seem particularly concerned about the lack of insurance!?
The thing is I feel reasonably well in myself - just the usual side-effects of chemo - mainly exhaustion and some nausea. It's just with the Onc saying no - as I will be half way through my Herceptin treatment - so would have to go for 7 days between 3wkly treatments - hopefully I wont be on any actual chemo at that time.
I will check out all of the things you have suggested. You folks are so great. I appreciate very much each and every response.
And Lily - of course we will be around! You are so right!  Sorry I get a bit pessimistic sometimes! Our little people need us to be here as their advocates and good role models! True eh Sis? I believe all the folks here are blazing a trail of wellness and recovery!
So grateful you all are here. I'll let yous know how I go with the Onc on Wednesday.
Blessings all
Hermiracles
