Thanks for all of your kind words and encouragement. A special shout out to the person who donated those two units. I'm not gonna lie, it's kinda scary getting a blood transfusion. I just imagined that it was a nice merlot with healing properties flowing into my veins.
A word of advice for when you are sick, don't call your brother who happens to be an emergency room nurse. He will immediately go into worst-case scenario mode and start asking for all your stats. It's worse than Googling your symptoms. (Actually, he's been wonderful and my rock. He worries about his big sister.)
When it got to be too much I just closed my eyes and pictured all of the wonderful places we've been this year. I wanted to be anywhere other than where I was.
This place was high on that list and it happens to be my brother's favorite, too. I'll never forget Philip's reaction to the Scottish highlands. He didn't say much, but I could see it all in his eyes. Neither of us really had the words and the photos just don't do it justice. I can not wait to get back to the Highlands!
It was truly breathtaking. I hope that you at least get a glimpse of that in the photographs.
We've had to cancel our weekend in Budapest for the Christmas Markets with the Gluhwein Gang which pretty much sucks and back to the hospital tomorrow for some more
What place do you dream about when you want to escape?
