And the count down begins... AGAIN!

After many talks and careful concideration we've decided to NOT cancel our trip to Hawaii! We leave in 20 days! Shaun will be on cruches but is getting a special wrap for when he's in the water. We're going to the Big Island so he won't have to deal with many sandy beaches. Our trip activities are already limited because of Isaac so the only thing we won't be doing is hiking! I'm thrilled that my parents are coming too (extra help)! Here are some reasons why we decided to still go:
The day before Shaun's doctor's appt. he was on hold with the travel agency for an hour and no one ever helped him. He was calling to cancel...
I asked the doctor if we could go and he said, "Sure! Why not?"
Shaun is burning up all of his sick and vacation days right now so he won't have much time off next year.
We booked our trip at the perfect time. If we go next year it's going to be at least $500 more!
