Update:

Appetite has left again, to be replaced by diarrohea. Argh. I'm working through that bottle of ciproflaxin the travel doctor gave me. I'm headed to the pharmacy this morning to pick up some other pills that were prescribed to me at first hospital. SO frustrating.

In other news, I have a date...with the boy's big sister and mother! Um, nervous? Weige has assured me though that they are his family and therefore my family and I have absolutely nothing to be worried about. We'll see how it goes.

Your humor and resilience will get you through most difficult times, Jessica. You are a trooper and I'm proud of you. A bit worried,yes, but still very excited about the daily adventures you're having. I forwarded your blog to several people at work and hope you're received a few emails from some of my colleagues/doctors. And one last motherly comment, "Why are you just NOW filling a prescription given to you several days ago?" S

Jess,
We're thinking of you and hoping you are taking your medicine as directed!! I shared your account of Chinese hospitals with our Infection Control nurse at the hospital. She recounted a time a few years ago that she flew to Japan to bring back her sister who had had extensive surgery and complications and her struggle to get her back to the US. Healthcare is so very different than in the US. One of the best things you can do is to keep doing good hand washing. Bananas and rice are good foods to eat when you have diarrhea. We so enjoy your blog. You have such a great way of recounting your adventure. Take good care of yourself. It sounds like you have some good folks looking after you. C & J

Wow, Jess, everyone is worried about you! I was going to say don't be bébé, but apparently this is serious (from the blog entry below).

I hope you are feeling better.

Anyway, they are turning the computers off in the internet cafe here. TTYL

Hi Jess!
Haven't seen any posts from you for a little over a week now, and am hoping that you're just really busy getting caught up again. Hope that you are feeling better- you are tucked in my prayers:) Have enjoyed reading your blog, and am looking forward to your next entry (and am curious- how did the "date" go with Weige's family?) All my best, Kate

Kidnapped? Eloped? Married? Deathly ill? Which one is it? Inquiring minds want to know.
