Also my husband takes meds for depression that makes us not eligible for many countries......so frustrating. So Bulgaria has pretty easy travel....two trips of 5-7 days and they are ok with meds. I will go on AAI's website and see what I can find out.kellym9999https://www.blogger.com/profile/10712792910389004481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1857265142751802557.post-18247493336391403432012-09-14T10:19:54.126-07:002012-09-14T10:19:54.126-07:00Hi Kelly, so sorry about your lost referral, that ...Hi Kelly, so sorry about your lost referral, that is heartbreaking.
