I should have thought that ... My girlfriend has the same problem. One particular med she takes is so expensive that the insurance company will only allow her so much.

It helps her migraines, sad because it is like 90 for a box of 3 pills. So, her doctor wants her to have a lot of it, but she takes what the insurance gives her... luckily it is a take if needed type of drug. Usually needs 1 a week, depends on a trillion factors that can set off a migraine of course.

Sometimes she has a box or two left over, that is nice to have those extras around.

I haven't reached the "ready to go home" point yet. If it weren't for our Cocker furbabies waiting at home for us, I'd live on a ship if I could!

It's so hard to photograph a black dog. This is a great picture! The yellow one is cute too...

I'm going to be gone for two weeks in March 3 nights pre cruise and 10 night cruise on the Emerald Princess I think by the time it over I will be ready to get home to my dogs.

We did 28 days on board this past spring, away for 34 days. We loved it. Have not reached the maximum yet, so cannot answer the question.

Asked a young fellow at my gym a few days ago, who cruises a lot with his girlfriend. He said when the birth control pills run out.

I had no idea I would get home sick on a cruise. I need a permanent address on a Residensea ship. With all that maritime real estate, I wouldn't miss home.

I put other. I could live onboard and take land vacations home to visit family for the holidays and birthdays other than that I'll be onboard. Now just which ship I don't know. I may have to ship hop. LOL
