MR im really not coping very well at the thought of him travelling and so far away from home...let alone into a place like Cameroon
But he has no choice.. has to go....its part of his job
Every night i panic and he hasnt even gone yet. Having the IL's here will be good...but its not the same as me being with DH or having him home. I constantly worry about the 'What if's' all the time.
Big hugs Kim. I hope the time he is away passes quickly. Make sure you find something to do just for you while he is away - a girlie night out, a massage, etc. It will help a lot and I'm sure your ILs will be very happy to look after the girls for you.
Take that site with a grain of salt too hun, they tend to find something to warn about in even the safest of places. It's mostly useful for checking out particular requirements for places, and major safety issues.
Sorry if I've been making fun of the Belgian food, it's just a stark contrast to Cameroon and I know which out of those two places I'd be worrying about! My DH has had to travel to some pretty hairy places with his job and that worry doesn't go away. My advice is to make sure you have your communications sorted out before he goes - ie know how often he is going to ring/email and when, and two or three alternative contacts for you in case you don't hear from him and start to worry. Will he be gone for long with each trip... a couple of weeks is a lot easier ot get through than a couple of months, you will need to set up different coping strategies if it's going to be a longer trip. HTH
Yeah Kim there will usually be travel warnings for pretty much any country you visit so don't be too concerned it's just general advice really. We've travelled to parts of Asia before that at the time had travel warnings in place and we were fine
I hope the time your DH is away goes VERY fast for you. I would be feeling the same way as you if my DH was going away for a bit too.... aw hugs dont' suppose you can travel with him???? just a thought hehe
