Hi,
If you have a medical issue, buy a plane ticket home, if you can't drive. Keep your mouth shut when booking the flight, except for asking for a wheel chair.

Last year, I was in Florida for 4.5 months with no emergency medical insurance. I knew that the thing that was stopping my eligibility was bogus so I wasn't worried health-wise. An accident? That would have been a problem.
Anyway, this year I had a couple of stents installed so even though I'm 12 months stable for last year's bogus condition, the 12 month clock has started again.
I've been checked top to bottom now and I'm healthier than I thought I was last year. I'm willing to chance it again this year but maybe not as long.
I understand about jumping on the first plane to Canada if I get sick or even getting a drive home if I can last two days. I know if I'm suddenly and severely sick, probably neither option will work - my bad luck.
Does anybody take "supplies" in case of emergency. Like, I don't know, maybe oxygen?
Suggestions welcome but don't bother saying "don't go" as that's a strictly personal choice.
