I think that sounds like a bunch of good news!Here's a story full of lots of twists and turns, joy and sadness, anxiety filled hope and a massive savings!
****LONG, wordy post with a slight connection to Airmiles, you've been warned ****
The clinic that I was going to in Toronto finally reopened and after a very rocky start to the process I started up treatments there again yesterday. My intake interview VIA Teams took 90 minutes in a hotel room while we were visiting Arthur and the outcome was so dim that the drive home the following day was a very quiet (other than the odd navigation comments) and teary 2.5 hour drive. Follow-up appointment a week later to say that the entire team met and agreed to accept me into their compassionate care program with a personalized protocol, daily treatments for the next 6 weeks. Hubby and I are cautiously optimistic that I will get back on top of this beast again. Our city now has close to all day round trip GO service to Toronto so I don't need to leave until 7:30 and I'm home by 2:30, very long day but I taught myself how to sleep on the greyhound and I'll get it worked out on the train as well! I slap a mask on when i get on the city bus and it stays on until i step off 7 hours later (ok, so i do eat a snack or 2) and other than one brief moment on the subway yesterday that felt like a sauna, I haven't been bothered by it.
Heading back home yesterday hubby asked me what time it was and i discovered I had lost my Fitbit somewhere between the hospital and the subway station I had cashed in miles for it last year and figured I would do the same thing again so researched on the train, looking at which models are available from AM and using the Fitbit site to compare features between them. We decided to go ahead and use miles instead of spending close to $300 and just after 10 last night I submitted the order. Fast forward to today's trip home and my last glance at my email before i got off the train was an offer from Fitbit for $110 off the model I ordered, DANG, that's a lot of miles! I thought I had read you can cancel an order within 24 hours - easy-peasy, hit the button, the screen refreshed and BOOM the 2,926 miles are already back in the account. That's about $300 worth of miles but I just bought the same watch for $189 direct from Fitbit, pretty happy with that outcome.
After a LOT of talking, pricing out options and thinking about what we really want to do, we've decided against a trip south in December and instead we'll upgrade to the resort we prefer to stay in for about half of what the shorter trip would cost. POFQ with a king bed will make us happier than pretending a queen bed at POP is *good enough*, we know the food service staff there will be more than prepared to feed me properly and it's just a nicer vibe. Disney just released AP rates for the beginning of 2023 up till end of March and when they did that for the few days in December it was quickly followed by the same offer for Disney+ members, fingers crossed the same happens and we'll save some money on the resort
POFQ.......massive sigh, I that place.
Can I go too? I figure if I keep asking eventually someone will say yes.
