“I’m worried about India, especially pumping.” I explain my fear that I’ll start hemorrhaging again during forty hours in the air. I let her know that the idea of me traveling to India while I’m still having medical issues is causing a lot of stress in my house. I don’t reveal the extent of Tom’s distress. “You can fly with me,” she offers. “That way if anything goes wrong you’ll have someone onboard.” That might be helpful only if Stacey could obtain a medical degree before the flights. Otherwise, what exactly is she going to do if there’s a postsurgical medical emergency?
