well I Am anxious as all heck. The new llmd is a 2.5 hour drive each way. I will be traveling alone. I think thats what makes me so nervous. When I was driving 4 hours each way my dad was with me and did some driving, although, the last time I drove the whole time.
I do have the option of staying with a friend after my appointment sleep over and leave the next day....she is an hour away from llmd. SO I am thinking I will do that.
please pray that this llmd will be my last, because he will be so perfect for me, there will be no need to switch until I am healed. seriously any prayers welcome!!!!
please also pray that I have a safe journey.
ahhhhhhh! I cant take it. I wish it was today.

I'm glad you have an option with staying with your friend.
Before I knew what was going on, I had a four hour drive round trip. I made the first 2 hours, but on the way back I had to get a motel. It was night time and there was windy mountain roads on the way back. $60 for the night, but I at least I was safe.

If it makes you feel any better, we just drove 12 hours one way to see a LLMD. It was VERY tiring on my daughter.
Hope you have a safe trip....Christie
