Crazy Weekend

Wow did this past weekend turn out to be CRAZY!  Our friends  (The I family) came down from Novi Sad.  They are going to be moving to Belgrade this summer and will join us in the projects our new company is doing in the city.  We are very excited to have the help as well as the friendship.  There reason for coming was to see us, look at neighborhoods so we can narrow down the apartment search and third go to the English speaking church with us on Sunday.  We had a great time Saturday starting the day with Mcdonalds Breakfast,  that's right Mcmuffins for all.  We then explored several neighborhoods so they could get an opportunity to see how things would be logistically.  Using busses and such.  That night we stayed up late talking,  Pretty normal day but that would change.  On Sunday when we woke up R was not feeling well (that' the wife and mom) so she stayed home we went to church.  By the time we got home she was very ill, fever and vomiting.  My brilliant wife got on the internet and I called a private clinic near our house.  The men and R loaded up and headed to the clinic.  After about an hour they decided it would be best to take her to the hospital.  The great thing about this clinic is they have their own private hospital across town, so off in the ambulance the I's went.  I headed home to help Jen take care of the kids (our 2 and their 3).  We were hoping they would just observe R for a few hours and release her but around 8pm the Doc's decided she had a severe bacterial  infection (not contagious PTL) and needed to keep her a few days for an intense cycle of antibiotics.  T took the kids back to Novi Sad for a few days of school and Jen was in contact with with R.  Luckily things cleared up quicker and R was able to come to our house Tuesday night.  She still has some treatment but can do it near our house.  T and the kids are back, we will be celebrating Thanksgiving together tomorrow.  Keep praying for R that she heals completly, but wow what crazy weekend.
