Give me the Rocket

Anita had been watching too much Nigella Lawson I thought. Guess what she prepared for me last night? A bowl of rocket salad. My favourite. Complete with balsamic vineger!

I tell you, she is a keeper! Thanks Love!

Time to Go Home

Puan Anita ha a comfortable night last night, when her friends came to visit and kept her company until almost midnight. A good night sleep after that and she only needed to go to the toilet again the next morning. Not much tummy ache anymore, and much less dizziness or headache.

She still hated her medicine, but her appetite was back. The Doctor allowed her home this morning and by the time I finished my clinic, she was all packed-up. The boys - Irfan especially - had been calling her all morning. Idlan was at school, and when I left him at the school entrance this morning , he made me promise that his Mum would be back later that day.

We reached home by the time Idlan arrived from school, and the boys spent the next hour all over their Mum. Anita still had to take her medications for the next few days, but I was sure she would be fine by the weekend. She had a trip to the spa all planned out for Saturday .....

A Bit Better

Anita was feeling a bit better especially after the visit from the two boys. I also brought Idlan to see a Paediatrician as he was having diarrhea for the last few days, ever since e vomited. The Paediatrician thought that he had a mild AGE, and started him on some probiotics.

Irfan was crying when it was time to go. They were asking if Anita would be coming back tonight. It seemed that I had to do the explaining to them later on when I arrive home alone ......

It was Anita's Turn

I was woken up by my maid just before my alarm went off at 6 this morning. Anita had fallen in the toilet.

She had been having stomach cramps all night last night even though she was normal earlier that evening. She did not sleep well, but there was no nausea or any need to risk to the toilet. But the pain just got worst and she finally went to the loo in the morning, and it was profuse diarrhea.

She then felt dizzy, with a slight headache. She shouted for the maid and managed to unlock the toilet. She then found herself on the floor after that. She was covered in cold sweat when I reached her, but able to response when I was talking to her.

I showered her and we packed her things and went straight to the Casualty. She was dehydrated at the time, but was much better once we started the IV drip going. She needed admission.

She was much better once she reached the ward even though she had to go to the toilet four more times before lunch. Time for some medicine then .....

She was more worried with our boys. Idlan had also been having stomach cramps for the last few days. He vomited last Friday evening, and had been having diarrhea since. Very likely it was him picking a bug from school, and passing it on to Anita. Good thing that Irfan was doing well, otherwise it would be a major headache.

Good thing about her wing admitted into my hospital was the fact that it would be easy for me to continue with work and all that while Anita was still in. In fact, I have a full clinic this afternoon and I plan to cut down on the number of patients for tomorrow morning's clinic. I may have to send Idlan to school before that.

Back to Hot Pot

Can't resist but to log about dinner tonight. Hot Pot Cafe Damansara Damai. Just me and the missus. The children were left at home. School night. That was our excuse :).

The place is famous for its masak lemak daging salai. Definitely the best I had in town. Adrie introduced it to us a couple of months back. And since then we have been back here a few times. Never disappointed.
