Plan B for vacationing

At this point, Mike and I were very tentative for making a trip south. He has not had the "Synvisc" shot yet. I have been reading on-line, and I have more information which the doctor's office had not told us: I see that he will have three shots, one week apart.

So the math does not work out for us to leave and join our friends in sunny Southern California: even if he were to get the first shot on Monday or Tuesday, his third shot would be about the day we are supposed to leave. And we don't even know if the med will work for him. He is in the wheelchair most of the time right now. If he was full-time on the walker, like he was a month ago, I would say we could still go.

Our plan B is to cancel this trip, and maybe take off one week a month for the next five months for more local trips in the fifth wheel (assuming he is mobile!).
