First Visit to Children's Hospital: 30 weeks 1 day in utero

Today we got up early and went to Children's Hospital to speak with their financial advisor. It was the first time we went to the hospital, and we were very impressed. It's a very nice place, and they've clearly gone to great lengths to make it as child friendly as possible. You can see a picture looking back at the entrance below.


Everyone we met was friendly and helpful, and the person we met with with full of great advice and explained our options very clearly. Not far outside his office was an indoor atrium with an amazing sculpture hanging in the middle. Here's a picture:


We left feeling much better about how things were going to turn out: Seattle Children's Hospital is going to be a good place for our son to fight for his life.


After we went to the hospital we returned home and decided to rest before preparing dinner. In order to prepare the dinner, we just had to go to the import market. We ate lunch there and bought lots of cooking materials. We returned home and began cooking. Pui cooked up a delicious 4-plate New Year's Eve dinner that we shared with my parents and our friends the Standings. It was very tasty, and happily there are lots of leftovers! Now we are full and happy and wondering if we'll be able to stay awake for midnight.


Happy New Year everyone!
