Sick in paradise

Well, the name says it all. Can you believe that one of us has gotten sick while in this awesome place. The trip has been great and weather has been perfect. poor little Elijah has come down with a stomach flu that has been passing thru the island of Maui. We think that he got it from the pastor of a small local church that we visited the other day. The pastor was hacking and coughing thru the whole service and we shook his hand as we left, little did we know. We took Elijah to the local urgent care office and got little to no help there. The Doctor(Quack) basically said that it would have to run its course and that antibiotics would only make it worse. He seems to be feeling a little better and we only hope that he gets well enough to fly home on Sunday. We are really hoping that the rest of us don't catch before we leave. The funny thing is is that the kids usually get sick the day before we leave on a big trip and not while on it. Oh well, lets hope for the best. On top of that, Elijah lost a tooth over here. That's not bad considering the tooth fairy screwed up and left a lot more money that he should have. I guess it is better to do somethings in the light. :) I guess the extra $ should help him get better sooner.
This all seems like small potatoes to what Diane, Mickey and Cody are going thru. I can barely get the kids to take their vitamins let alone a lot of meds like poor little Cody. He is such a trooper and strong little man.
We fly out Sunday and get in late that night. We will spend the night in the hotel and head to Janean's house the next day to pick Zoey. The kids really miss her and so do I. Maui is great but there is no place like home for home bodies like us. Luv to all and talk to ya soon.
