We have been lucky enough to make CC each of our sailings, but had we not I would be disappointed. That said...lets look at what happened here these events were medical emergencies!!
People please, I know you have scrimped and saved and that this is your vacation but ....remember "There but for the grace of God go I"
I could never imagine be left off a cruise ship with my young family to face the unknown during a medical emergency. The stress of not knowing how your loved one is doing and not knowing the capabilites of the medical staff around you must seem unsurmountable at that moment.
I hope for the families that these emergencies were treated properly and that they will be able to return to the US with a complete and much happier family than when they were left on some foreign soil to face the unknown.
I have a friend who lost her husband in Puerto Rico about 10 years ago, she was faced with dealing with a sub par medical staff, sub par medical facilities and the task of flying home his remains. This was in Pierto Rico---the place they take many medical emergencies in the Carribbean as they are known to have better facilites and staffs then most of the islands! I pray that I never have to make that trip.
