DIS Dads DDC XXIX: We’re Over 750 Dads, With A Disney Problem!

[KapBoy77]

Okay...car is loaded, for the amount we have, it looks really good. Almost two years of planning is about to go into motion. Only thing left is to wake the girls, have breakfast, and stop at the bank. Hope to be having lunch in Pennsylvania somewhere.
Any posts here or FB will depend on wifi, I'm not going to kill us with roaming charges, what we get in minutes/data on our plan is to keep in touch with family, but I am sure once we're down I can check in here.
We planned 3 days for driving, usually stopping around 6pm-ish for the day unless we want to push a bit, I forsee a lot of rest stops . The route we are taking is I79-I77-I95. Look for a black Journey with Disney decals etc on the back, Ontario plates.

Everyone take care of themselves and stay safe. Look forward to see Jim and Cliff, and I'll keep my eye out for Carl as well. Very pumped about this trip, moreso then any of the others.

Where from Ontario you leaving from?

Good morning everyone!

Wave toward the left when you see the giant baseball a little after you cross the SC boarder along I-77…

I’ll wave back

Morning.

Left the good off intentionally. We've got all kinds of peanut butter and Beverly going on around here. DS is still sick. Test results came back that he has croup (although he hasn't coughed or struggled to breathe once). He's still fighting a fever and acting sluggish. DD has had a fever for a couple of days, but she's acting fine. We think it is just one of her typical fevers she has as she gets new teeth in. And to top all of that off, DW went to the Dr. yesterday with some abdominal pain. They did some bloodwork, a CT scan and she's had a Dr. appointment this morning and they still aren't sure what is going on. The family Dr. just sent her to see a surgeon to see if he can diagnose anything. Right now they've got about 4 potential problems showing up, but can't figure out what the exact cause is... so fun times around here.

Sorry to hear the bad news. Hope it all turns out well.

Well that stinks. Hope everyone starts feeling better soon!

 

[afwdwfan]

Thanks for the well wishes. DW just finished with the surgeon. She's feeling less pain this morning than yesterday so they kind of wonder if maybe she passed a kidney stone?

The surgeon was the first to mention that possibility. Even though the blood work kind of ruled out an appendix issue, he said her appendix is definitely enlarged, nearly twice the normal size. He said since she wasn't in a lot of pain this morning and it didn't hurt when he squeezed there, he doesn't recommend doing surgery right now, but if the sharp pain comes back or she's still feeling discomfort after a few days he wants to see her again.

Having just dealt with the sick kid, I can't imagine doing that all the while going through my own ordeal with a surgeon. Hope everyone starts feeling better soon!

 

[Wherem I Now]

G'day gents.

Barry, thanks for the update on Ryder. Glad to see that he's doing better.

Andy, Prayers for your daughter. Hope that she's recovering.

Safe travels to everyone headed to WDW soon. Wish I was going with you.

Hope she's ok. Sorry you guys are in the sick ward right now. Remember, this too shall pass.

Thanks everyone. It's a relief to have him home. He's completely destroying the place, which means he's back to normal.

Glad the little guy is doing better

That is the only thing I miss besides Doctor Who, when I canceled cable

Hey nemie your package came. I had to fight the kids off to get the chocolates put out of reach.
