I have warned the kids, the 10 yr old can bring one back pack that hes carrying himself and the 4 yr old can bring his little roll on, at least if Mummy is left with the roll on I can pull it along and still have my backpack and my cpap machine. Im going to be like a pack mule..lol I have decided not to take the 4 yr olds car seat with me and just rent one at the car rental place when I get there. At least that cuts down on something I dont have to carry. Mickey and the CPAP it is!!!
thanks for your comments..hugs.
Glad to see you decided to take it. I would hate to think of you having spent all the time & money on a vacation & then feel too bad to really enjoy it.

Now...HAVE FUN!!! CPAP & ALL

Whoa! Been on tube since June of last year. Took mask off early once and woke up gasping for air; slept without the machine once (different time) and was MISERABLE. Will NOT do that again. I haven't flown with machine, but have made several "car trips" for varying lengths of time. It has all been well worth the effort of packing, toting, and using while not at home. Good luck to you!
