Cross Examination


The three families from Gaoyou had to stay behind and answer a battery of questions regarding the measles. Apparantly, the last group from Gaoyou that came through a few weeks ago didn't pass the medical exams. There was no way we were staying any longer in Chinatown, Jake. Ellen put on the charm and reassured the doctors that Jemma was fully recovered (which she is) and that our whole family was immune from getting the measles (which we are.) Then we all had to write little reports about everything we knew about our daughters' measles. This was kind of a bummer 'cause while we were doing this, all the other parents were out shopping for chochkees and clothes. Not to worry, we were given the opportunity to shop afterwards - which we did - with wreckless abandon.
