In Caracas, Venez.

Hi Folks

We made it to Caracas, Ven. and Joey-Lynn is doing good so far, tired and all but good. We have about 7 more hours before our flight to Toronto. So at least we are on our way home. Hopefully she stays stable throughout the rest of our return home.

Well, when we left Canada, we left seeking adventure... becareful for what you wish for..... this has been quite an experience and learning over all. It's certainly a trip we won't forget soon but are both disappointed about how the trip turned out but glad she is doing well. It could have been hell of a lot worse so back in the andeas mountains on the Inca Trail.
Joey-Lynn wanted to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers, we know a lot of people have been sending lots of love.

We both have lost a ton of weight... besides her being sick and me being stressed you lose you appatite when in high altitude locations.... it's amazing how it affects your stomach. We both perked up quite a bit last night in Lima finally at sea level.... my breathing is no longer laboured and my appetite finally came back as last night we ate Chinese.... about six of them :-) Joey-Lynn ate a little bit. It's just so good to be able to breath normally and walk stairs without being winded after one flight.

We brought a sleeping bag and pillow on our carry on so if Joey-Lynn gets tired she can lay down, the airport here is quite big.

We will truelly be glad to get home, when I get more time I'll post the sequence of events leading up to her illness I know everyone has been asking.
As far as the wedding it doesn't look good for Saturday. We will likely delay it but will make the final decision on Tuesday when we get home....

Looking forward to seeing everyone.... we should arrive home or hospital Monday around 1:00.

Love to all

Frank & Johanne
