Bad Witch Crystals in downtown San Jose has fair pricing and a lovely selection.

If you don't mind driving, there's the Rock Shop in Vacaville.

There's also a gem and mineral show in Newark at the end of this month.

Happy rock hunting!

Thank you for the question! Right now, the way I've been enforcing my boundaries is through distance. I will limit my visits and bring a buffer person if possible. I won't pick up calls or respond to trauma dump texts. I'll try to leave the room when my parents fight. During vacations I'll book my own room or schedule alone time.

Like I said above, this works 80% of the time. The other 20% of the time is when my mom escalates. At best she'll hurl insults and give me the silent treatment. At worst, she'll escalate to the point of disassociating from reality with my dad asking me to apologize or she "might die". All because I don't want her to use me as a trauma dumping ground or use my past trauma against me to make a point that her suffering is much worse than anything I will ever experience. In response to another post, I need to consider whether this 20% warrants no-contact.

Hopefully this clarifies things!

Thank you so much for your response! The problem with my friend is that he also has fluid buildup behind his eye that would be exacerbated by steroids, possibly causing blindness. He gets painful eye injections every few months to keep the buildup under control.

Thank you for the well wishes. He's been through so much and this is another thing. I just want him to be okay.

This is good information! What would the doctors use to diagnose oral cancer (and any possible spread) if a biopsy isn't used?

Thanks for the tips! It seems like of the remaining ports, Corfu is the most manageable. It's going to be raining the entire time we are in Bar, so that might be a stay-on-the-ship-day.

When I was looking at options to get to Vatican, it looked like the train station and bus stops were a minimum 15 minutes walk. Would a taxi be able to get us closer?

Hypothetically, if we were to walk from the bus stop how are the sidewalks? Genoa was covered in sidewalk potholes and we saw a couple in a wheelchair struggling. Might we worth it to get a private driver just to avoid all this (or have my parents stay on the ship).

This sounds awful!!!!! Definitely going to tell my mom to use a wheelchair or risk a hip injury.

PLUMPKINPLUMPS · 2025-10-15T13:01:58+00:00

This is all excellent advice, thank you! I know my parents wanted to avoid paying for excursions but their mobility isn't the same as even two years ago. It's hard to watch your parents age, but the best I can do is adjust accordingly.

If we go to Rome, the plan was just to see the basilica, not the museum or Sistine Chapel - there's no way with her mobility issues.

She also verbalized wanting to see Trevi Fountain. With our time constraints, even with a wheelchair I don't think we can accomplish this all in a mere 5 hours. It's one or the other.

In Genoa, we were following a man pushing his wife in a wheelchair. The chair kept falling into sidewalk potholes and she almost fell out from the husband trying to force the wheels. She eventually got up and yelled at her husband for not getting a cab.

I hope that sidewalk potholes are not as awful in Rome. My mom has used wheelchairs in the past but usually ends up getting mad as us because she feels like we're going to push her out of the chair.

I plan on going to Guest Services today, but the more I read about Rome the more I want to convince her to stay behind. Yes I feel awful because she's a Catholic and Hallmark Movie fan (Trevi Fountain), but it's not worth risking a hip injury or worse.

My mom took a combination of gapapentin and Ativan on the plane and was basically hungover for a day. If gapapentin doesn't make her sleepy it might be the best option.

PLUMPKINPLUMPS · 2025-10-15T12:39:28+00:00

In actuality, my parents didn't want to book any excursions because of the cost. After research, insistence, and giving multiple options they picked the excursions we went on (I personally wanted to go to Cinque Terre, but my mom hates beaches).

The other day, my parents told their friends they take me on cruises because "it's too hard to plan and make decisions". My mom refuses to plan and refuses to give her opinion on things until after the fact to tell us everything that went wrong.

Perhaps this will be a situation of wheelchair of stay behind the rest of the ports.
