medical tourism

Never thought I would become a medical tourist unless there was some fabulous treatment in Europe that the FDA was too slow to approve.  Instead, my oncologist is moving to Florida to run a wonderful research program and teach.  Boo hop.  Although good for the medical community and cancer research.  Bad for me.  Although I will continue my treatments here, with a supervising oncologist, I will be changing medical plans in November when I qualify for medicare and can travel to Florida to visit and get a checkup twice a year.  Not my favorite place but there are worse places to go, especially in the winter after the one we just had.
