Our son Simon's forehead was hot and we suspected he had flu, so we decided to cancel our skiing trip and return home. He was disappointed by the news, and locked himself in the bathroom, saying "Mum, do you know how long I have been looking forward to this trip?" I looked at the calendar to see if we could come back later. Not this year... and the view from our window was perfect and so inviting! My husband said that we should stay after all. It was one of those decisions that was both good and bad. We had a wonderful time, but Simon coughed and sneezed a lot. We gave him some cough medicine and he enjoyed skiing down the slopes so much. After we got home, Simon's doctor said that it was a classic case of an infection. Luckily, staying hadnt been a bad decision.
