I don't think you can pull off this vacation without harming your efforts. What's the goal of going on the vacation? Tradition, it was already planned, last family vacation don't count in my book.

I liked your responses above. I just don't think the vacation is in anyone's best interests right now.

Retain faith that you will prevail in the end, regardless of the difficulties and at the same time confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be.
