My last travel outside Canada was to U.S. two years ago. My wife, daughter
and I drove to Cape Cod Institute. While there, I developed sciatica (I
now have a chronic back problem, so this is something I need to learn to
be careful about).

I had to go to emergency in a hospital simply to get prescription (I also
had to fly back, while my wife and daughter drove back).

So Doug, since you are now DDG Sr., I would suggest that you take all
necessary precautions, including travel medical insurance, if required.
Take care
Masud
