Hoping for us!! Fingers, legs and toes crossedWell the good news about the storm in the latest update is even though it looks like something will come up in the next two days now, they don't believe the conditions are going to support a strong storm. A depression isn't the worst.Fingers and toes crossed.

I have this bag and absolutely love it! The pins stay on and it fits everything I normally bring with me. A water bottle that keeps ice, a handheld fan for when my face gets a little sweaty, a portable charger and an umbrella are staples in there.Anyone used the Designer Park bag? Did you like it? I finally decided which pins I wanted on mine today. I love it! I hope I still love it after carrying it in the park. What do you carry in the park? I have our metal cups, they will keep ice all day, for the free water refills. I am also taking my sunscreen, a poncho, glucose tablets, and a couple snacks. Do I really need anything else?

I personally don’t think so and had no problem wearing it all day in the parks. I also have a backpack with Mickey ears from h&m that I bought years ago and a few other ones from Amazon that I rotate through on my trips, so I’m not sure if that plays a part in it because Im not solely wearing that one. But I do love it and think it is worth the purchase!I was looking at these bags but was wondering if they are heavy.
Thank you! I forgot about my portable charger. I was a little worried about my pins falling off at first but the pin backs that come with the bag are awesome. They are very difficult to remove so I think the pins will stay with no problems.I have this bag and absolutely love it! The pins stay on and it fits everything I normally bring with me.

Mine is new but the bag itself is very light and the straps are soft and comfortable. I’m hoping it will work well.I was looking at these bags but was wondering if they are heavy.
What does a depression mean in terms of general Disney area weather? Anything? Nothing?Well the good news about the storm in the latest update is even though it looks like something will come up in the next two days now, they don't believe the conditions are going to support a strong storm.

Would love to hear about your EEH night at Epcot! Hope it goes well for you.Off to Epcot tomorrow and EMH for deluxe resort guests!
If it goes that far inland it means more rain and wind. If it doesn't reach The Disney area it means nothing.What does a depression mean in terms of general Disney area weather? Anything? Nothing?
Here now and definitely agreed that there are a ton of UK accents. They opened up a package with a dining credit (not the real dining plan) pretty recently for UK, right? Looks like it's working!Hearing SO many U.K. accents here already and I haven't even been in the parks yet. People on the August thread were saying they were hearing a lot and think that's a big part of why crowds have been a bit higher than is normal for this time of year.
Dinner at Sanaa was great - highly recommend the African Snickers for dessert!
Off to Epcot tomorrow and EMH for deluxe resort guests!
Does work ever really stay calm, just sayin'A little late to the party on this thread but I will be at Pop 9/10 - 9/17 with my mom and brother. Now if only work could stay calm for the next 2 weeks....
I saw a FL friend post about this and figured I would come here to see your thoughts lol I realize there are a ton of 'IFs' here but IF this was to turn into a system and IF it was to go to Florida what is the timeframe? Flying in Saturday and feeling the stress lolWell the good news about the storm in the latest update is even though it looks like something will come up in the next two days now, they don't believe the conditions are going to support a strong storm.

Oh my goodness, that sounds dreadful! I'm so sorry your DH and you are going through this. I will be thinking positive thoughts for his recovery and prognosis. Hopefully thoughts of Disney will keep him in a positive frame of mind. Of course his health and recovery is the priority, but I do hope you all are able to go on your trip. Take care!so, some stuff has been going on for us and it looked like we may have to cancel our September trip. we still may but it is up in the air atm.
That sounds so stressful and scary. If he bounces right back you’ll really have something to celebrate on your trip but it’s nice to know it can wait if it needs to. Send you all good vibes.so, some stuff has been going on for us and it looked like we may have to cancel our September trip. we still may but it is up in the air atm.
DH has been having issue with his abdomen area The past 6 months or so.
he has been to his GP many times and she has put Him on Clearlax- December. He went for a CT in January 2022 and it was normal.
April the pain got worse again and she changed him to Miralax- she said it was fecal matter and she said she would schedule colonoscopy. She didn’t. But, he did get some relief and had BM twice a day, so DH was hoping that was the issue.
fast forward to 9/19 and DH is having pain in abdomen and his doctor could barely touch his stomach without him shouting in pain. She said it is a pinched nerve and gives him a steroid shot, antibiotics, and RX steroid.
on 9/24 the pain was so intense that he goes to the ER. They do a CT and the doctors say he has a large malignant Cancer mass where his appendix is “supposed to be. DH said where is my appendix then? DR and nurse said “that’s a good question”.
so now we went from excess fecal matter, to pinched nerve to Colon Cancer…
admitted to the hospital on 9/25. He has the colonoscopy and they are hoping to get a biopsy of the mass and check to see if he has Crohns. They find one polyp but can not do a full procedure because the mass if blocking the appendix area/colon.
9/26 he has surgery and this DR also says “cancer”. He removed a portion of his colon and the fist size mass that includes his appendix. i ask the doctor if his appendix had ruptured and he said yes. He said he didn’t know long ago. i told the doctors in the ER that he didn’t have any of the common symptoms of colon cancer like blood in stool, tar like stool, etc. and I really felt like it was his appendix had ruptured and they said they would know that it was ruptured. even though the CT in January said it was normal. i know I am not a medical professional, but i don’t know why this didn’t show up sooner.
we won’t know the pathology results until today or tomorrow. DH has to Pass gas, have a BM, and able to control pain with oral meds before he can go home. He has been walking with his IV pole since last night to try and hopefully get the gas moving. He is on antibiotics, morphine, Tylenol 1000mg, and oxycodone Q4 prn.
I know we are not out of the woods yet and something could show up on the pathology report, but my hope and belief is still that this is an anomaly and he is so very fortunate to have not suffered the effects of the burst appendix in the worse way.
DH is the one saying he is getting well before our schedule vacation in 4 weeks, but I would be ok selling the 6 night stay or trying to bank the points with MS.
He is sitting in the chair right now looking at the F&W app…. sipping apple juice.
he is a strong active healthy 53 yo man except for this.
you guys keep posting your excitement and anticipation! And have amazing trips! The magic is still there and if we can’t make it this month, we will be back as soon as we can.
