Should we add my 40+ attempts, since you managed to register both of us before I could get through? :funny:

Be careful about making up stories . . . There are a bunch of folks in my hometown who believe I was actually bitten by a shark in Cozumel. I went to an acting workshop and we had to come up with a 90 second story. So I wove together a story about the Cozumel dive with the 3' shark in a...

More favorite memories & shout outs! Most of all, I loved the diving. I've told some of you - I was retired involuntarily in April. I was notified in October, and continued working (keeping my termination a secret because making it public would have hurt people who weren't involved in dumping...

Sorry you had a rough go! It really is unpredictable. When my employee and her family had it in October, it ranged from completely asymptomatic (caught only because the entire family was tested) to pretty severe brain fog - which is just now beginning to lift. . . . and now she has it again...

Your doctor should have reported for you - pretty sure reporting (by doctors) is obligatory. But I'd encourage anyone who hasn't reported to their local board of health to do so (to minimize the percent by which cases are underreported). I researched whether I needed to notiy the airlines. I...

This is my second time to Cozumel to celebrate the end of cancer treatment. I made an October 2016 celebratory dive trip following the end of my active treatment for breast cancer. I was diagnosed with a sarcoma a year ago December (that "shark bite" on my right arm). I'm currently NED, at...

For the price we paid, I'm OK with mediocre food. What disappointed me a bit was that there was virtually no Mexican food. I've been to Cozumel 3 times and stayed each time at an all-inclusive resort. This is the first time the food was primarily slightly off American/Italian/Asian, etc...

My daughter was diagnosed just before her 5th birthday, but had symptoms the doctor insisted were nothing since she was 3. So sounds similar to your grandson. Her infusion center is pretty good about rescheduling - but she feels it when she is delayed for as little as a week. I would be...

Good to meet you, as well! Maybe we'll dive together next year in that place no one is mentioning . . . (My symptoms are mostly gone by this morning.)

My daughter has her annual colonoscopy today. (She has a disease which puts her at extremely high risk for colon (and a half dozen other) cancers). Obviously, with COVID, I can't be her driver and information recipient. It will be the first one I've ever missed. Depending on her infusion...

Better safe than sorry. I got my second booster 3 weeks ago. I waited to get it so I had peak immunity for the trip. Didn't keep me safe! (Although my symptoms are very mild.)

(Reposting here, since I accidentally posted it in the wrong thread initially - blame it on COVID!!) Favorite memories - Grupo 8 - Best dive group, ever!!!! I loved how compatible our group was. And @Queen Triggerfish is the best insta-buddy ever! I haven't done dive travel with a group of...

And tests are not always accurate. Lynn (now positive) tested negative (before traveling and at her most symptomatic).

I just had my second booster 3 weeks ago, with the intention of having maximum immunity for the week ahead of, and the week of, the invasion. This is the third time since November I have had cold or flu symptoms. The two prior times I tested negative, repeatedly. This is by far the mildest of...

Favorite memories - Grupo 8 - Best dive group, ever!!!! I loved how compatible our group was. And @Queen Triggerfish is the best insta-buddy ever! I haven't done dive travel with a group of people I didn't know ahead of time before, but I've been to Cozumel 3 times as a lone diver who got...

Two more positives here. Lynn and I tested on arrival home - both of us are positive. Lynn had what we believed was a massive allergy attack on Tuesday or Wednesday (several similar attacks during the COVID era, always negative for COVID. This was no exception - she tested negative the...
