I would love to meet you, too, Maxime! The closest I am to Canada is that I have a friend who is visitng Montreal right now . . . she is actually from there, but lives here now - I'm way down in Florida.

I certainly understand that you are scared. I never had the guts to take any risks in my life, and, consequently, I have been kind of limited. Not that I have a bad life . . . I just often wish I had been a little daring. Perhaps things might be a bit more exciting.>

There is nothing wrong with being scared - as long as it's not keeping you from taking action. I think it is great that you have identified your fears and know how you will address them if a problem should arise. Now, the trick is to let go of them - a lot easier said than done, right?Do you have enough medication to keep you going until you actually do see a new doc? I know you are not secure with your meds at this point - can your current pdoc make some contacts for you in your new province - so that you might be able to have continuous access to a doctor should you need it?
Such an exciting (and scary!) time -
Warmly (literally - well, actually, it's only in the high 70's right now - a cold front!),
