Hello everyone. One of the most popular questions I get is "Can we come and visit Alicia?" I am very happy that so many want to come to visit her and us. Alicia loves visitors as she likes to look at new faces. Unfortunately while in the ICU she can't have visitors do to the fact that there are other sick kids in the same room and the spread of infection is very easy. Most of the kids in that particular room have open wounds and the staff there is very cautions of who comes and goes.
Today Alicia was very awake, she was moving her hands up and down and trying to pull out the tubes that she's connected to. The nurses though that she is a bit to awake and had to give her some medications to calm her down. That's Alicia for you, she just wants to get out of bed. She still has a fever of 38.5C and she is getting antibiotics to control that.
My three pilgrims (Emily, Kasia and Monika) are doing great, I am surprised that Emily is taking this so well, I thought that we will have to go and pick her up on the second day but no, she is as tough as her mother and cousin. Friday they will walk 24km and Saturday only 9km. I think after this long week of walking they will be ready to go on any expedition with Krzysiu and Asia P. :)
She already has a spot reserved in our kayak :-).... anything for a strong and optimistic little girl !!!
I hope to have a kid like her one day ;-)
