The circumstances of Shelbi's first visit to Italy were sub-ideal at best, but after the health scares were over I was able to take her around town and show her all of the highlights. Of course we also managed to sneak in some shopping, gelato, and wine (ok, maybe more of these than the sightseeing...). I've wanted Shelbi to come to Rome since I moved here so I could show her why I love this city so much, and why I study what I do. Our short time together was so precious, and when we weren't at the Doctor's office, the grocery store, or the pharmacy, we had an amazing time and an incredibly special week together.
