I’m tired of my patients ending up in the hospital or dying…..up to you.

Why not continue to insult your neighbors and hosts…up to you

Consider booking a place for 7-10 days and then moving on.

AirBnb places will usually have a kitchen so you can make your own meals. Save money and have what you are accustomed to when you need a break from going out to eat.

Better to have a paper copy in case your phone is not working

Airline Staff at Vietnam airport will probably insist on seeing your exit tickets from Thailand or they won’t take you.

Tony….Don’t beat yourself up and second guess what could have been.

Yes she could have probably gone back to Thailand and passed away with her Thai family.

Instead she spent a little more time with you…..

That’s good right?

Tony, such a sad story.

I’m a physician and can say this was basically bad luck on her part and NOT your fault.

Sarcomas are very fast growing and difficult to cure. Surgery is the best option and only when it is small.

Tumor in the abdomen is hard to find early on, especially if she had no symptoms. Biopsy into the abdomen is not easy anyways.

She probably had advanced disease even before she traveled.

The stress of travel maybe didn’t help, but she would have become very ill in Thailand also.

Sepsis is difficult to recover from and she was not likely a candidate for surgery at that time.

She was probably happy to spend some time with you…..

I hope this helps and you can find some peace.
