As some of you might have noticed, I haven't been writing on the forums for the last couple of weeks. Jesse has been here for 4 weeks now and I suppose I subconsciously wanted to push aside everything about long distance and just focus on spending time with him.
We've obviously been having an awesome time. We had all sorts of stuff planned but only did a fraction of them because I didn't wanna push Jesse's health to the limit. We've mostly stayed home (and in bed..) and watched a bunch of bad movies and South Park. :P I made him taste a lot of different Finnish foods and dragged him to sauna several times.
Unfortunately, the trip hasn't been without problems. A couple of weeks after Jeesse arrived he started feeling very sick, so we took him to the emergency room and he spent a night at the hospital. They wanted to keep him longer, but in the end it wouldn't have helped much since we already had antibiotics and an oxygen machine here, so we decided to just take it easy the rest of the visit.
Worrying about his health has been admittedly stressful, but I still think the trip was worth it. He got to meet my family (who all loved him, despite the language barrier) and see my homeland.
But everything good has got to end. We're gonna leave in about 8 hours to take him to the airport and he'll be gone before the sun rises.
