    Up early to take Jaz to the hospital well across town.This morning his face is more swollen and the rash, which covers his trunk and neck, looks more like sunburn. Last night the doctor came here after eight pm, and spoke English well; but is confused about what it might be; after consulting another doctor, and getting the events of Jaz's ailments straight between French, English and Italian, he’s ruled out an allergic reaction to the amoxicillin Jaz was taking for his swollen lymph glands and tonsils. We should be there the whole day, and I’m not sure exactly how this is going to unfold without being able to explain the symptoms in English.

    Gord got in last night from Fenestrelle, couldn't find a proper parking space in the night streets of Torino. Patrick, JC, Erik and Gord went out to hunt for the car many blocks away. Came back with pizza. Everyone was here in the apartment using the internet.
