This is a bit overdue but
I still thought it was worth posting from the honeymoon.
We went on a wonderful
cruise aboard the Allure of the Seas for 7 days on our honeymoon. It was a much needed break from the day to
day issues of life and we had a lot of fun.
The one thing about cancer though is that where you go, it goes. You can try not to think about it but the
treatments leave you with limitations you must always be aware of – stay out of
large crowds, no sushi, no buffets, stay away from coughing people, etc. I actually wore a surgical mask while on the
airplane to try to keep the germs away since it is just recycled air. I got a lot less stares then I thought I
would. Also, many of the restaurants on
the ship were buffet so that limited us in our food choices. I’d like to say I was blissfully happy the
entire trip but the medications they give you to help with the chemo side
effects can cause your mood to sink when you are withdrawing from them.
