a ruptured Achilles tendon and complicated surgery. I had a trip planned for May of that year. And I’ll never forget my orthopedist telling me that I wasn’t going to Mexico, I was going to surgery. It was a very serious injury. The good news is that I postponed the May trip and ended up in Mexico a few months later in September once the two plaster casts and boot were all off. And I was able to walk in deep sand and swim in the sea with fins on my feet.
Listen to your doctor. Listen to your gut instincts. Listen to the universe.
I hope you get your London birthday trip. But, if for some reason, this is not the time for it, do something else fun and special this year and have many more healthy birthdays to celebrate in the future.
