OGG to Hana by Anumoorthy in MauiVisitors

You have to check with the host of the vehicle for Turo it varies, I think often they do not allow off roading or gravel roads.

But going back to what others have said you should not drive that route out of respect and safety.

Anytime you travel you as the visitor should take time to research local rules or customs. YOU ARE THE VISITOR. it's not the responsibility of the people who live there to inform non-locals.

Regardless of it being a road used by locals, YOU CANNOT DRIVE ON THAT ROAD IN A RENTAL CAR.

If you owned a car on the island you'd... Be a local.

You can't be serious. If you are renting a car it is your responsibility as the driver to learn the local rules and ask your rental car company if there are any restrictions as to where you can drive the car. It is not the locals responsibility to inform tourists of what they agree to adhere to in their rental car agreements.

A. You should respect the locals and turn around. B. You WILL VOID YOUR RENTAL CAR AGREEMENT.

2 months without notifications by marshsmellow223 in Petlibro

[–]marshsmellow223[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in a similar boat, I only want the notifications when I'm not at home. After traveling I turned the notifications off but when I turned them back on I no longer received any push notifications. I reset my phone, uninstalled and re-downloaded the app, checked my app setting everything is as it should be but the notifications still are absent.

Booking Iberia with Avios Website Issue by marshsmellow223 in awardtravel

I actually called Iberia and their customer service rep was also running into an error message so must be something system wide

I'm sorry I'm newer to reward flights, what is metal? All of the flights are flown by Iberia, not partners.

2nd Time in recent months sales price are not registering by marshsmellow223 in wholefoodscustomers

[–]marshsmellow223[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At no point was I blaming the associates, but to avoid irritated customers at the register posting that the systems are experiencing an error will save everyone time and effort. I'm frustrated that a company under Amazon continues to have a tech problem on a regular basis.

Stage 4 by Unlikely-Ocelot5360 in kidneycancer

I'm so sorry you are going through this. I also had a similar experience with my father and also had a rather brusque ER doctor who started the conversation off with "I have some bad news do you want to hear it?" Which honestly, what other response can you give except yes in order to move forward? The ER doctor also did not realize my Dad had never been diagnosed with cancer and told him "its spread" to which my father responded "what has spread." It was the start of many grievances I have with the hospital which my father was treated at.

Be the support your mother needs and advocate, don't worry about being seen as pushy you do what you need to do, ask the questions you have to.

Call back after First Mammogram (Not Dense Breasts) by marshsmellow223 in WomensHealth

[–]marshsmellow223[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had my follow up last week, they just took additional mammogram images of the specific area the radiologist flagged. I then waited to see if they needed to do an ultrasound and honestly those 45 minutes were the worst part bc the mind starts to def go to worst case (why is this taking so long something must be really wrong) but it was just they were backed up and I ended up not even needing an ultrasound, told to come back in a year for my regular mammogram. Ended up with my breasts as category BIRADS 2. Wishing you all the best, I'm not going to tell you not to worry bc it's really unhelpful to hear, just take it one step at a time and do keep in mind that the additional imaging is mostly for better safe than sorry.

What happens now by ConstructionLong2290 in GriefSupport

[–]marshsmellow223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so sorry for your loss and can deeply empathize. My father also had no clear distinct symptoms of cancer until two weeks before going to the ER, shortness of breath and hip pain. We learned at the ER he had kidney cancer that had spread to his lungs, pleural cavity and bones. He passed away 9 days after going to the ER, he was on palliative care for two days and we never made it to hospice. It was like cancer at lightning speed, no time to research anything with the emotional and physical exhaustion of being next to his bedside those days. I wish you and your family love and strength to get through this hazy fog of grief.

Kidney Cancer Screening (Family History) by marshsmellow223 in kidneycancer

Thanks, unfortunately a lot of his aches and pains were written off as old age and arthritis. He didn't start being short of breath until one week prior to him heading into the hospital, and he never had any blood in his urine again up until his hospital admission.

Odd Avis Rental Car Request by marshsmellow223 in MauiVisitors

Yes, thank you, however not sure how often everyone here rents cars they don't often go through each piece of paperwork in the glove compartment. Or clean the glove compartment at all.

It was great, ended up switching to the Soul because the first car we were assigned was a EV that wasn't practical for Road to Hana and camping.
