Marshmallows-Typhoid Pills & Garage Sales!

Last Friday

 5 of us went to the International Travel Clinic for a consultation and shots :)

As we sat waiting in the lobby a Grandma and Grandpa were there with their around 4 yr old grandaughter who was sacked out on the chairs. I gathered they had been there awhile just from listening to them talk with a nurse. After a moment the Grandma pulled a half eaten bag of marshmallows from her bag and handed one to the Grandpa. Some whispering and looking our direction went on and then Grandma offered Micah a marshmallow :)  He declined :)

They were so kind to offer and I thought how funny that here we are sitting in a Travel Clinic being offered a marshmallow! 

We have decided that Zach and Nick will be going with us to Ethiopia next week. Because of the importance of this trip we want them to experience our children's culture and history as well as be with the kids for this first meeting.  

Two hours later we came out of the clinic learning about all the possible parasites,virus', what they do and symptoms. Very eye-opening...Nick made the comment that he wants to stay in the US of A after hearing all that! Ha! :)

Hep A, Hep B, Tetanus, Typoid Pills, and a prescription for Malaria pills and an antibiotic.

We decided not to get the Yellow Fever shot.

PHEW!
