Posted by Sara Allen on December 4, 2017, 12:23 pm, in reply to "Re: allergic-scorpions IMPORTANT NEW INFORMATION "
and all my new pen pals in La Manzanilla who so kindly
responded to my pleas for info on the scorpion/ER front.
As Grace Paley said in the title of her book,
Alison Granucci and I experienced "Enormous Changes At The
Last Minute".
Two days before departure, Alison's client, poet Richard Blanco, called with an invite to an event in Chicago on Dec 5th.
Smack in the middle of our planned trip.
Sort of a 'once in a lifetime' thing. Richard is on the planning/advisory committee for Barrack Obama's
Presidential Library/Museum. The committee is meeting on the 5th with a social evening to follow. The Obamas will attend, as may other members like Ken Burns, Tom Hanks.
She was reluctant to accept, wanting so much to show me
La Manzanilla. But I assured her that we can do it anytime- whereas this moment in Chicago is just that- a moment in
time/history.
So she's going. And I'm in wintry Millbrook cheering her on!
The recent posts with updated comprehensive medical/emergency info are excellent! What a relief to know that when I finally get there, should the occasion to use it arise, we'll know exactly what to do and where to go. Ad that you've achieved a greater level of security for yourselves.
Til then, thank you again. Have a wonderful Christmas season and a very healthy New Year!
