Thanks for the info on the jellyfish. I was wondering if there were any in the water. I was stung on Aug. 4th. Can't remember if that was the full moon or not.

So far in Aruba my husband has treated coronary issues, someone who had an allergic reaction to seafood, eye infections, and someone who ripped his foot apart on coral! Not a bad idea to check at the desk to see if an MD is a guest at your resort!

Cheers,
