What's up doc?
This morning Miles woke up very congested and with a slight fever and before breakfast puked up his bottle. Poor little guy. He's very tough though and doesn't seem to wine much. Another trait he and Grace share....Sorry Ethan your tough too. We met Mo and the other couple at 8:15 a.m. and headed to a hearing. Here we sat in front of the 3 people pictured above. They asked us questions about our family and why a Thai boy. They wanted to ensure Miles is going to a fine home. Many people were outside waiting their turn as this committee only comes together 2 times per month. The people were nice. This is mainly a formality. They don't really have any power to deny an adoption. After the meeting (Sarah and I were lucky enough to be first) we headed to the hospital to get Miles looked at. This hospital was great. Quick and easy. They took our names, then processed Miles weight and height. Gave us a number of which room we were to go to. The whole thing was painted like a leave it to Beaver town. With a Blue sky & clouds even. The doctor was very good. Inside this big waiting area was also a theatre area with a Play land for kids. The doctor prescribed an antibiotic since we are leaving in 3 days along with some other medicines. Just a little viral infection was determined. After the doctors office we went and paid and waited for our drugs. We were in and out within an hour. We picked up the drugs in the same area. The Doctor visit and drugs came to 1,200 bahts. or $32.00. CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT. US hospitals & pharmacies are ripping us off!!!!!! We then went to a nice coffee shop & cafe and had lunch. You know most of our meals have not been over $10.00 including tip (everything has a 7% - 10% gratuity automatic) and we have eaten VERY well. In fact Sarah is gonna need to hit the gym hard.... OOps I'm gonna be in trouble for that one (anyone who knows Sarah knows I'm only joking (she isn't here to censor my humor)). Now that Miles is with us all the different Thai woman are coming up and touching him and talking to him. I think their really using Miles as a reason to get a closer look at this hunk of American man beef (oops just kidding again)! (and no Ali I'm not walking around with my shirt off, You can let Bob know that!)
