UPDATE

OK I KNOW I HAVE NOT UPDATED IN FOREVER. SORRY. TO TELL THE TRUTH I JUST REALLY HAVENT BEEN IN THE MOOD TO UPDATE. REFERRALS CAME OUT AND THEY COVERED 7/23/05-8/9/05, THAT IS THE MOST DAYS THEY HAVE COVERED SINCE LAST YEAR BUT STILL NOT A WHOLE MONTH. OUR 6 MONTH LID CAME AND WENT WITH NO JADEN. IT WAS A VERY ROUGH DAY FOR ME BECAUSE IN THE BEGINNING WE WERE TOLD IT WOULD TAKE SIX MONTHS NOW WE KNOW THAT WILL NOT HAPPEN SO I WAS VERY DOWN. THIS IS THE HARDEST THING I HAVE EVER BEEN THROUGH. I AM SO READY FOR THIS PART OF THE JOURNEY TO BE OVER AND TO FINALLY HAVE THAT PICTURE OF JADEN AND THEN TO FINALLY GO TO CHINA TO HOLD HER IN MY ARMS! ANYWAY ENOUGH MUSHY STUFF. WE FINALLY STARTED OUR SHOTS TODAY FOR OUR TRIP TO CHINA! WE WENT TO THE VANDERBILT TRAVEL CLINIC. WE LEARNED ALOT ABOUT WHAT WE CAN AND CANT EAT AND DRINK IN CHINA, KINDA SCARY! WE CANT EVEN BRUSH OUR TEETH WITH THEIR WATER BECAUSE WE WILL GET SICK, WE HAVE TO USE BOTTLED WATER THAT WE HAVE TO OPEN OURSELVES! I WILL BRING ABOUT 20 EXTRA TOOTHBRUSHES BECAUSE I AM SURE I WILL FORGET THAT RULE. NO ICE, NO MILK, NO GRAPES, PEEL YOUR FRUITS, AND NO SUSHI(NO PROBLEM WITH THAT). SO FOR THE LOW LOW PRICE TODAY OF $395.00 RUSTY AND I BOTH GOT A HEPATITIS A&B SHOT AND RUSTY GOT THE TETNUS(I PUT MINE OFF TILL NEXT TIME). WE HAVE TO GO BACK NEXT MONTH AND GET THE 2ND SHOT AND THEN 6 MONTHS LATER TO GET THE LAST. WE ALSO GOT PRESCRIPTIONS FOR THE TYPHOID PILL TO TAKE BEFORE WE GO! AND IF WE FIND OUT THAT JADEN IS FROM ONE OF THE SOUTHERN PROVINCES SHE RECOMMENDS WE TAKE THE MALARIA MEDICINE TOO! BUT THE WAY I FIGURE IT IS THAT I HAVE LIVED THE MAJORITY OF MY LIFE IN MISSISSIPPI AND IF I DIDNT GET MALARIA FROM THE SKEETERS THERE THEN THE CHINESE SKEETERS SHOULD BE A BREEZE!!!
