I called them three days in a row asking for updates. The answer was always the same: "Your bags made it to Dublin airport. They now need to be processed and will be sent to you." Okay. When? "We don't know. You just have to wait." Can I go to the airport and pick them up myself? "No. You would just be wasting your time. Nobody will be able to help you at the airport. The bags are in process. Just wait."

After three days of this we finally lost our patience and went to the airport. We kicked up a minor fuss and prompted staff to go looking for them. The bags were just sitting there, in a huge warehouse with hundreds of others unclaimed, unprocessed bags. Nobody was looking for them. They were never going to be sent to me. We were able to retrieve them within minutes.
I’d be livid

ugh..this happened to us in Florence years ago..they lost my luggage and AMEX gave us 500 to buy stuff...the bags were at the airport the whole time just sitting there

all is good here fellas

i had a 2 week period were while resting the old heart rate jumped to 130-160 bpm 3 different times. it only lasted an hour but each time and the third time it was only about 10 minutes. it wont kill you or anything but when that happens it is hard to reconcile that. i sent over my ekg readings from my watch to my electrophysioligist and while it isnt something that needs done ASAP it is something that can help these isolated incidents.

the physical part i can handle its the mental drainage that i am more concerned with. when it happens my normal thought process of the glass isnt just half full it is half full with acid turns 100 times worse and i think the worse. basically i have felt this way for the past two years even when it doesnt happen so hopefully this gives me a huge piece of mind

plus i get to get knocked out and enjoy the best sleep of my life :)

oh let me be clear, my dad´s wife is not an alcoholic.

One of the possible reasons for Pancreatitis is being al alcoholic, but this is not the case.

She did had a sister who was one, and i could see her downfall and it was just incredible really. This woman was gorgeous and in just 10 years she seemed like 90 years old. But it was impossible to deal with, and i think her main issue was that she got very depressed once she divorced and never had children.
