Hello Community Family, Happy Friday to everyone and praying after recent weather conditions - all are safe. My week plus has been a complete 'world wind" to say the least! On September 28th - hubby and I celebrated my postponed bday (due to MS hospitalization eights months ago) by traveling to Honolulu Hawaii. We had a great time once we arrived! Sadly, so many young people seem to be crying out for attention in our society, between the increase violence etc., a young boy thought it would be funny to text that there was the "B" word on the airplane!
We were only 1 hour in flight from LAX in route to Hawaii when the pilot made an announement that we had to go back to LAX airport for what appeared to be a threat. If you can imagine the fear in all of the families not knowing, thinking the worse....praying. Then once we get on the ground, I've never seen so many "James Bond" looking agents women in my life! The family with "Problem Child" was taken off the plane and never seen on the flight again. We ended up flying the next day; yes the next day! About 250 of us had to be put up in hotels, lost a day etc.! Our luggage some kind of way was destroyed, then replaced and then placed on the wrong connecting flight. Eventually, it reached us and I'm sure American Airlines has many many claims (like mine) they have to deal us. Ultimately, the blessing is; thank God after the stress, we arrived Thursday! I realized that having MS has if anything prepared me not to be the big big cry baby like I used to be only a medium cry baby at times. When we get home, back to business doctors etc... So what's on the list, the good old Mammogram. I had it yesterday, and low behold I get one of those messages that further studies need to done, and they want to compare all of my disc's from my previous 2 -3 years. This is because I had it done at the hospital I see my all my doc's. I've already gave it God! If you're gonna pray - don't worry and if you're gonna worry; well you know the rest! I'll keep you updated. Sorry for Thesis lol Thank y'all for listening, and reading, sorry it was a long story. Nope, Hawaii beautiful 15 hours flight time - I'm good
We Are Stronger Than MS and other Things
Peace and Blessings

So happy that you made it to Hawaii, stepsforNeeC ! Easier said than done, but try not to think about what is waiting for you on your return. Sending you lots of hugs, smiles, and prayers!
I am so happy that you got to Hawaii for your Birthday, even belately. I think dealing with MS for years has trained a lot of us to handle a lot of things! Be strong and be well! I had one of those mammogram reports a couple of years ago, results were " it was just a wrinkle in the breast tissue." I chose not to question wrinkles inside as well as out!🤗
You are strong and so calm in the face of much that would unsettle and dismay any of us! That strength and your faith will serve you well in the days ahead. I'll carry thoughts of you in my heart as I go forward, day by day, as all of us here do!
I had to go back for additional imaging almost every year in my 40s. They all came back ok. They even had me going every 6 months for a while. Finally after age 52 I haven't had to go back but that is only 2 years so far.
i'm glad you got to eventually enjoy your holiday! my mum often marvels at my equanimity when faced with annoyances. i hadn't connected it until i read your post, but it makes sense with all the upheavals we experience and never knowing when we wake up how we'll feel, that we wouldn't get as upset.
