Greetings from Sweden.
Long time no see. Have a lot to do, unfortunately is my little baby ill. So the time for hoyas and other things are limited.
This is what has been blooming at my house in the north of Sweden recently..

Tank you all!
I appreciate all of your consideration for my little boy. We think it is something that in Swedish is called cow milk protein allergy. He has been really sick but now when we have taken out all cow milk in his food (itīs in almost every sorts of food here) he seems to be a little bit better. I hope that we can soon be a normal family again.
And thank you all for the appreciation of my photos. I love hoyas and have had around 330 hoyas. But now Iīm trying to reduce the numbers a little.
I agree with you, buotii is lovely. And flower very early my plant was around 10 months :)
Marie, your photos are fantastic. I hope your little boy is feeling better. Years ago my middle child was having problems keeping his formula down. He would spit up half of what he ate. In those days, formula was made from milk, dextros power and another ingredient. After four months of Joey being on the formula, we had a major mild strike. We couldn't get milk. He was put on a soy formula, and lo and behold, the spitting up stopped. We found out later that he was lactose intolerant. Today, (he' in his late 40s) he still can't have any milk products.
They still sell soy formula! And if he's old enough maybe try soy milk with added calcium....my 2 cents as a mom of a 20-month-old.

Thank you, for the tip and telling me about your son. Our son has not lactose, we tested that in the start when he got sick. Now when we have not giving him any milk products for about 1 month he is slowly getting better. So it is probably milk-protein-allergy. We still keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best.
JuliaFs:
We have found a formula with out milk in it. It works very well. :)
Marie, I'm happy to hear your son is doing better, and glad you found another formula to feed him.
