Our trip to Peru was really fantastic, although not without some issues. First of all, you’ll notice that Anthony is missing from all the pictures on the islands. Unfortunately, he got pretty sick right before we went, and Jessica, Shirley and I had to leave him behind in Cusco to recover. (He was doing much better when we returned after a round of antibiotics.) Poor Jessica had a hacking cough and trouble breathing the entire time we were in the country. I got violently ill the morning we were supposed to leave, and Shirley got sick at the airport. (None of us escaped!)
And now for a priceless, final photo. I was vomiting so much at the airport that I garnered the attention of the police and then a medic, who put me in a wheelchair and took very good care of me. (I was wheeled through the security checkpoints all the way to the gate.) Craziness.
Despite our illnesses, I couldn’t have enjoyed our time in Peru more. Even though we saw lots of great stuff, the most wonderful part of the trip was the opportunity to bless the Broggi’s with the oxygen concentrator. Before we left Alberto gave a touching speech about how I’m a gift from God, and how much this will change their lives, etc. Alberto, Marta, Shirley and I all started sobbing and I couldn’t help but thank God for the opportunity to know the Broggi’s. Although I can’t quite explain it, I simply couldn’t love that family more. 
Hey Tiff,
I am so glad that your illnesses didn’t get in the way of your enjoying Peru. I highly admire your love of travel and trying new things! These are amazing photos!
