Ellie woke up in the middle of the night with a stomach virus. The first real illness we have had to face in Stockholm. Most days the decrease store hours do not bother me but it was annoying that there was no were to go out to get Pedialyte. It was a wakeup call that we need to have a better supply of medications for middle of the night illnesses. When the pharmacy opened at 10am, David ran down (it is across the street) and talked with the pharmacist. The Swedish version of Pedialyte is actually a tablet that you dissolve in water. I love the idea because it is easy to store and transport unlike the prefilled containers in the US. We will always have some tablets with us when we travel. Lucky for Ellie that virus passed quickly and after nap she was back to her normal self. However, David and I needed the day to recover from the long night.
