HCM second time around.
We hadn't planned on staying another night in HCM but with yesterday's incident we had no choice. We were also waiting on medical advice as to whether we should cut our trip short and fly back to Sydney. We also needed time to sort out all the administration with medical centers and insurance.
While I was in hospital with Wendy I developed a stomach bug that resulted in some very violent vomiting and diarrohea. Just what I needed at this stage of our trip. Initially I thought it was just a run of the mill bug but after speaking with a nurse at the hospital I decided to see a doctor. I had lost all my energy and couldn't keep anything down so they put me on a IV drip and kept me overnight. In the meantime Wendy was discharged and went back to the hotel with the kids.
When I eventually made it home we spent the next day sorting out our insurance and onward travel arrangements. We had to skip the leg of our trip to Nha Tran and decided to go straight to Hoi An where we could chill for a few days, particularly for Wendy who is hobbling around on crutches.

Graham R An adventure and a half.... Gee I'm pleased you guys are on the mend. I was worried when I couldn't get an update over the weekend. We first became aware of the incident from an email from Marge. Please keep blogging and/or emailing. We loved Hoi-An and bought lots of clothes, shoes and trinkets.
Janette Yes i'm wth Graham there, was so worried for you guys, but good to hear everything will be ok. Hopefully it won't spoil your trip to much. Take care
