The Vepreks are Headed to Boston

It's official!  We have a date for a second opinion in Boston and I think we have everything lined up.

The big day is May 14th!  Please pray all of the medical records and everything they need get there in time.

We had planned for just Madi and I to go, but it just so turns out that David's parents are going to be in Boston at the exact same time (well, except they are staying for two weeks) to visit with David's brother and sister-in-law.  And it also just so happens that David's brother works at a hotel he can get us a room at that is right next to a train station, and the train goes right to the children's hospital.

I was not wanting to spend the airfare to get us all there, but David is really wanting to go and visit with his brother and sister-in-law, so we are going to go ahead and all go.  The kids are super excited about riding on an airplane, as neither Conner or Madi were old enough to remember the last time they were on one.  David is really excited about seeing somewhere new.  I am super excited to get a second opinion on Madi's surgery.  So basically we are all pretty excited over here!

I'll keep you all updated on the specifics as we get closer to the travel date.  Thank you for your prayers, I know they are working.  We were told, multiple times, that they would not book us a date until they both received and reviewed all of Madi's medical records.  Yet, here we are with an appointment, even though none of that has happened yet.  On top of that, David is getting a bonus, so we will have the money to go.  Praise God!

  1. Did I miss your call? I'm so sorry. We are swamped with moving details and Esra is under the weather. I Would love to help you! I have a non-profit that covers medical travel that gets us back and forth to Boston. Also there is a resource for housing that is lovely, cheap and has a shuttle to BCH. Also, I can help you with which train to take and navigating the diet end of things because Children's is not very alternative-diet friendly.
