Travel & Leisure: North America

Why do you want to do this?

I am going through chemotherapy for stage 3 breast cancer. Cancer ain't for sissies. I have a lot of days where I feel really crappy. Thinking about Hawaii and having that be my "reward" for all this sickness helps me get through it.

What three things will you need to make this happen?

Get healthy.

Save money, which will be difficult because I have a lot of medical bills.

Get the time off of work, which will be hard, because I have already missed a lot due to doctor's appointments and illness relating to my cancer. I also feel bad asking off when I have already taken so much time off.

What is the biggest barrier to your achieving this?

Money and getting off of work.
