we have an adult who is wanting to go with us on our 2004 trek, and he
suffers from migranes. (sometimes frequent and debilitating)
I suggested he call Philmont and speak to the Health Lodge, but I also
thought I'd ask here as to what your collective experience has been with
advisors with migranes. The Advisor in question is already planning to
speak with his Dr., and seemed receptive to the calling philmont idea.
The other thing I'd like to ask about is how do we select the 4 adults
to go with us? We have 5 adults on the list (I'm one of them) and the
committee decided I should be the head advisor, and am going. (Their
decision, not mine. Not that I'm complaining :)
we also have 4 other adults interested in going, and a maximum of
3 available adult advisor positions. Of the other 4 adults, one (A) is the
above migrane sufferer, one (B) is a slightly overweight/out of shape
individual, one (C) is a Naval Reserve Officer working a new job, and the
other (D) is in fair shape, and travels a lot with work.
A may drop depending on discussions with his Dr/philmont.
B, I have no doubt, can get into shape in the next 15months
C is in the best shape of all of us, but has mentioned vacation may be an issue
D can also train up in time, and thinks he'll be able to get the vacation.
My initial plan is to get us all together over a couple of cold ones, and
try to come to a consensus. If that fails, I'm going to leave it up to the
troop committee (excepting the spouses of the involved adults).
any other ideas?
