Visiting Viggo and Ingelis in Slagelse

Planning the US trip

Spring has arrived and we are getting hold of the final small details for our New York / Washington trip. Knowing the we are going to a BIG town we went out to buy a light stroller for Sebastian. Just in case that he will refuse this we also bought a carrying sling (Sebastian has the weight of a one year old) where he can sit close to our body, and still make is easy for us to walk around. As anticipated he refused to sit in the stroller AND try the sling! Well, we have to have some serious practise going before leaving on the 2nd of April! Tears and cries - here we come!

Winther is infection time - and Sebastian had to go through a fouth infection this year (now two weeks ago) with stomach pain, vomitting and diarrhoea. It lasted for 10 days, but he seems to be doing fine again and is back in kindergarten. 

We are looking very much forward to the US trip and are going to meet up with two doctors in New York, Dr. Arleen Auerbach and Dr. Boulad. We find this a great opportunity to try to find out more about the illness, and hopefully to get a little wiser regarding the prognosis for Sebastian. We will see.

We are going to spend a little week in New York, and will then take the train (!) to Baltimore, where we will stay for a couple of days. After this we will rent a car and drive towards... well we are not really sure. If you have any suggestions of what to do / see in the Maryland / Virginia area you are most welcome to e-mail us (use mail@  with the domain address: lacourmarkerrasmussen.dk). In the weekend of April 14th-15th we are visiting friends in Washington followed by yet another tour into the unknown (!) for four days before leaving back home on the 20th of April. We will of course try to update the journal and the pictures as we go along.
