Abi Ahh Mayg...the sickness sounds horrendous...well espesially for me as I have a puking phobia!! So glad your host family are looking after you...just keep drinking that green tea...it's good for you- minus the sugar! I've just finished a 48 hour open exam which wasn't the best but I'm so happy I'm done for the term now! Went out last night for serious celebrations! Can't believe I've got 5 weeks at home without Mayg time- what am I going to do??! Love you loads mate and keep your chin up about your surroundings- I know it seems awful but you're there for a reason and to me you're a super star for going through so much to help!
