boo hoo flu
UPDATE:
Piper is feeling a little better, her temp is in the normal range. We have to keep it there for 24 hours to assure us she is no longer contagious. The doctor here is amazing, and a Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics, as well as Canada's, Britain's and Hong Kong's, his credentials are from Yale,Cambridge and NYU! The medications seem to be helping signifigantly...thanks for all your prayers and well wishes. Hoping for travel tomorrow, staying in the hotel for the rest of the day.
FIVE MEDICATIONS!!
Piper has the flu...yep, the real thing, and it's a doosey! Hong Kong has a huge epidemic of flu right now, so serious in fact that they have closed all elementary schools as of today and have a 100,000,000HKD plan for innoculations against the very flu that Piper has. Five children have died from this particular strain. Today she spiked a 104.2 fever and we took her to a doctor who then sent us to the Hospital for special medications..we hope she is well enough to travel on Sunday...Paisley day, if not...we will have to postpone and travel a few days later.
Please keep Piper in your thoughts, she is completely miserable.

Praying praying praying for little Piper! How miserable for her!
I am so sorry to hear that Piper has the flu. I will specifically be praying for healing for Piper and protection for you two that you don't get sick. And, that "Paisley Day" does not have to be postponed.
Hang in there!
