I really feel thankful for the past 3.5 years here in Asia. We haven’t had any MAJOR sickness or injuries. That’s definitely the Father’s hand of protecting and blessing for sure! Here we are, getting ready to head back to the States for the summer, and we have had more health problems than I remember having before.

Well, this past week Caden fell on some slippery tiles in our neighborhood and cut his head open, and Colt had a severe ear infection (which would make flying excruciatingly painful). Thankfully, we were able to get Caden’s cut cleaned up and take the fast train to the next province over to an international clinic. From other people’s experience, we knew the local hospital used thick sutures and no numbing medicine. . . I couldn’t imagine Caden holding still with that painful stitching job going on right next to his eye. Thankfully, it was possible to avoid that traumatic experience.

Colt. . . after 2 sleepless night and painful days, we were able to get some antibiotics and he started to get some relief. I was desperate.  I even took him for massage that the locals do when they are sick.  He said it made it worse haha. He still has some fluid in his ear, but it seems to be getting less and less. He should be good to get on the plane Monday!

I used to be laid back, but after this. . . I’m more foreseeing the accidents and germs/sickness that never happened before – pretty much turning into my mother
