Hi Fibro Friends

I was just sitting here listerning to my family talking about holidays and where they would like to go and i had a thought that wouldnt it be nice if there was a place where all us fibro friends could go on holiday then we could all meet and have a wonderful time as we would all be in the same boat with our illness so no one would feel out of place.....

But it would have to be somewhere sunny and hot as this would help with our pain levels and it would have to be cheep as alot of us are still fighting to get our benifits but wouldnt it be a wonderfull time for us all and a great time would be had by all .......

Just for a laugh and see how many would go ....

Where would you choose to go

Gentle Hugs to all

On our way to some exotic destination could we please stop off at dorset and spend a day at Monkey world? ,I have wanted to go for years is there anywhere else that someone would like to stop off at? We could have a great time before we even got to our holliday lol Sue

im in that's a great idea!:) i would like to go to a nice place that just catered for us & have a lovely pamper day & massage, hot tubs & our own private beach & stay there till night time i love the sea,we could build a big sandcastle & just act like kids for a day, we could go crabbing in rock pools or go cockling when the tide's way out,we would need beach scooters lol,then a firework display on the beach another night,then next day have a lovely barbeque &disco & party on the beach,my dreams go on & on &........what fun we would have :).

Sounds like a great idea, but I would request two slight adjustments to your vision:

1. Please make it a moderate climate instead of hot, because hot weather just makes me feel listless and heavier.

2. Please can we have a dedicated carer each to accompany us... do all the packing, transporting, arranging, and everything else as well as stuff like massages and medication organizing while we are there?

Let's go!

I'll defo go for your second suggestion, it's actually what I've been wanting to do for ages, it's just a case of finding someone to go with :o

But if all of us from here go that would solve the problem :D

I'm game!!! Defo like that idea, I went to turkey last year for the first time and I LOVED it. Great fun was 45'C but can't tell and there was a breeze.

I only took medication on the night time because the beds were so hard and uncomfortable but other then that I wasn't in any pain.

I could walk for miles and was not in any pain!

I would like to suggest..

1, Spain (as I have heard u can get a cheap holidays for there).

2, Creet (my friend has been there and said it was lovely).

3, turkey (been there love to go back).

4, Portugal (went there once for a family holiday).

I haven't got a carer, though could bring a friend.
