Saying goodbye

Yesterday and today have been full of visits in the hallway and exchanging of addresses. Each patient here is addressing their own issues yet we have found strength in sharing this part of our journey together – a side benefit from stem cell therapy in China you could say. The people from Alabama along with the mother and son from Egypt will share our van tomorrow, though they are each leaving to go directly to the airport. Also, our guide Frank is leaving China to move to Australia to begin his own massage business, how exciting for he and his wife. Today we went to the ‘curiosity shop’ which was really just a market of all things Chinese. We didn’t get to stay too long because it was so hot but we were treated to the preparation and service of Chinese tea. The owners wanted me to pay them with American dollars so through our guide we came up with a fair price, unfortunately that leaves me with $3 to come home with. I am sure I can exchange Yuan for Dollars at the airport.
Nathan is feeling good today, only a slight headache when we were on our way home from shopping., probably the crazy taxi ride. I would never try to drive in China. After he laid flat for a while, it went away..we will have to be careful while we are sight seeing. Well, take care and I will write more from Bejing! Love, Nan & Nate
