Sorry for the lack of posts, it has been had to get to the office computer and we have been busy worrying about Tariku. He has gotten sicker each day we have been here and he is still in the care of the doctors and nannies in the care center. He has lost quite a bit of weight over the last week and they have been trying to keep him hydrated. Besides the vomiting and diarrhea he had a slight fever last night(100.8). They did some blood work to check his white cell count and that number came back normal.
This morning and this afternoon he has been alittle more alert and babbling a bit which is nice to see. He is still very sleepy and needs to gain some more of the weight back. The staff here has been very friendly and helpful to us during this time and have told us not to worry. It is kind of hard not to when all you want to do is take him home. And that is where we are right now, we want to come home, see our kids, family and friends, and for our son to be better. Hoping to see all of you soon.

Oh... You guys are in my prayers. I hope he's better soon. Will you stay there until he's well? Or will they let you take him home while he's sick?
Hope it's not an ear infection. That would be HORRIBLE on the plane ride back. I'm praying for a speedy recovery for Tariku. Poor little guy. He can't even enjoy his new parents like he wants to with all this going on.
Praying for you guys!!!

Hope you get to come home safely, healthy, and soon!
we're praying for Tarik to get well. Hope the two of you stay healthy. Is he still requiring NG tube feeds? We miss you and love you! Hope to have you ALL home soon.
Love, Elizabeth
