In this special episode of Away We Go We Go, we share one of the wildest weeks of our lives, navigating our son Luca’s open chest surgery in France, all while managing jet lag, travel hiccups, and family chaos. We get into the emotional rollercoaster of being split between hospital rooms and home, the challenges (and surprising miracles) in Luca's recovery, and how it feels to handle a major medical event abroad.
We also take you behind the scenes of French healthcare, breaking down the realities of hospital care in Marseille, how it compares to our experiences in the U.S., and the little things that made a huge difference for our family. From language barriers to hospital food, we keep it honest, hopeful, and, of course, a little humorous - as Luca himself makes a special guest appearance!
