Hi everyone 💚
I hope you are having a good day today. I have a little announcement and now is the time to share some life updates with you.
Back in early July, I was diagnosed with hyperparathyroidism. Your parathyroid gland regulates the calcium in your body. Mine is very high which causes problems like brain fog, fatigue, mood swings, insomnia, kidney stones, osteoporosis and if bad enough, heart arrhythmias.
I have been struggling for awhile and just brushed it off as anxiety or side effects from diabetes and beta thalassemia, other disorders I suffer from. Unfortunately, I have come to terms with the fact that I am not able to be the travel agent you deserve right now. I have clients that have been waiting on me for a few weeks and I’m treading water managing my current trips. Thank goodness fo my TA friends that always have my back.
It is time for me to focus on my physical and mental health, as well as my family. I am closing my books to new travel inquiries until after my upcoming surgery. I plan be back and better than ever mid November. If you have a trip coming up, please do not worry. My team and I will take very good care of you. If you have sent me a trip inquiry, I will be there for you and we will still find you the perfect vacation options.
Thank you for your understanding while I take brief leave of absence. As the saying goes, I can’t take care of others unless I take care of myself first.
This is a pic of me getting blood drawn from veins in my neck today for part of my surgical workup. Afterwards, I treated myself with a waffle cone full of butter pecan ice cream 🙂 If you have any questions please ask. I’m an open book and I will get through this.
