My son in law because very ill with blood clots in his leg and both lungs while on a Carnival cruise just a year ago.

Carnival gets very high marks for handling this life-threatening situation. The captain became very involved in decisions and it was apparent they had to get my son in law to a hospital ASAP. The captain changed the course of the cruise ship, even announced to the passengers what was happening and asked for prayer from passengers for my SIL and daughter.

Our family is very grateful to Carnival for their handling of our family's crisis.

That is impressive. Just goes to show that who runs the show is very, very important. As someone else said, the Captain is responsible regardless of the situation or who suggested what. The buck stops there.

The right captain, boss, leader, or President makes all the difference. The wrong one makes for a disaster.
