A week ago our last child was discharged from the hospital and we were ready to start our Chinese New Year break.

Well, before our break started, we received a very precious “gift” for CNY and we happily give up our break. Her name is Clara. She’s such a sweet and precious 9-DAY old baby. She was born with spina bifida and her sac was broken. We are so thankful that the British International School Shanghai and the Schell family quickly helped us fund her surgery (42,000RMB). Dr Bao will perform her surgery this week. She’s currently in Bed 16, 5th floor of SCMC. Please feel free to visit her during your CNY break.
