Not much has changed with Matt. He does seem to be in less pain everyday and you can tell he's got more good moments.

The adoption went to a rapid stop, and due to Matt's condition, we have not discussed any further plans. We just have to get him home safe.

I on the other hand, had another lovely break from the hospital. The Canadian family that invited me earlier for supper, took me with them to get groceries at a larger supermarket, as well as fresh market. The smell in the street market was fabulous - all the fresh flowers, fresh fruit and vegetables, smelled like walking through a garden. I stocked up on things that I haven't eaten since I've lived in Poland! mmmm Thanks again guys! We even found an extension piece to charge up the dvd player, but unfortunatelly it's buzzing to a point of concern...for fear of getting zapped @ 220 V...we'll just have to skip to books :)

So, there's never a dull moment with Matt's buddy in his room. Both of his parents came over today insisting that Matt see another "doctor". After painful translation and arguing, I decided it would be just easier if I went to see this guy to be polite to them. Well, it turns out that this "doctor" is a healer...the way that it was explained was that Matt had a curse put on him by a witch back home and needed this healer to take it away...very very interesting...for 2,000 grywna, we will not do that. Very nice of these people though...
