A new adventure

And now we start a new adventure. After a few bumps in the road the last few days trying to get here, we are in Cincinnati, Ohio. The week before we left for Florida, Michelle was diagnosed with a respiratory infection so we started antibiotics, no biggie. But this last Friday morning when the pre-consultation phone calls began, the mention of pneumonia almost cancelled everything. Luckily the whole reason we are coming is her predisposition to get pneumonia. So they advocated that we come anyways. Then immediately after I tearfully sent my three little man-cubs off with Papa and Grandma, we got a phone call from the airlines saying they weren’t going to be able to provide power to Michelle’s portable suction machine and so we would not be able to fly. Ahem, we just flew last week. We tell them that all of our equipment has plenty of battery back up and things were cleared up. Lastly two eventful plane rides later, one with turbulence that made the rides at Disneyworld seem like nothing (we just flew through the South during active Hurricanes and Tropical Storms-those flights were a breeze comparatively) the other being delayed for over an hour for a random security check, we made it. Daddy and I keep saying that we have definitely been facing opposition to come here, guess it is pretty important she be here.

So it begins, something I have been hoping/dreading for the past few months. We are going to meet some pretty smart people that some other pretty smart people we know sent us to. We are praying that they will give us the answers to puzzles that have surrounded us the last few years. We will try and update each night with some brief info on who we meet and what we find out. And we will now move forward.

I have been meaning to call you lately. Again, I didn't pay enough attention to the promptings. You are in my prayers. Call me when you get hope! Good luck Michelle!
