Catching the Bug

After the hospital visit to see his cousin Sarah the other day who was down with dengue, Idlan seemed to have been hit by a bug.

He was up last night with fever and diarrhoea. Poor boy. He was absent from school this morning - much to the displeasure of Irfan - and was resting at home with his grandfather.

I will be heading to Gleneagles after this to join Anita to visit Sarah again. She might be discharged later today. Hopefully Idlan would also settle by then.

Idlan back in Subang

Idlan had another temperature spike last night and early this morning. Everybody was concerned and with neighbours and friends recently having dengue, we couldn't take any risks.

Off we went to Subang for blood tests. And there was where the drama started. Idlan started screaming and shouting. I had become famous at the hospital now with my children antics.

Alhamdulillah, the dengue test came back negative and we went home happy. Not before leaving an impression though. Hopefully the need for blood tests firmly boys would only come when they were older. Just couldn't take anymore of these stress.

Plan Back on Track

The boys were feeling much better and Anita had managed to get their projects under control. This meant that the Kelantan trip would be on this weekend.

There was however a slight change in the plan. Instead of leaving on the Monday, we planned to set off in the early hours of Sunday morning instead. We would also be coming back a day earlier, on the Wednesday.

We were expecting a long journey this Sunday. Traffic would be bad. So, we will be setting off by 6 am. At least that was the plan ..... Good luck to us!

Simmering

The fever improved then got worst by the end of the day. It was 38.7 when I settled home earlier and the paracetamol, brufen and tepid sponging helped. Better now. Playing with my boys who were commenting on my wet forehead.

They kept asking me to gobble down the air badak. Tasted like normal H2O. Maybe I was still to feel it's magic. Time to hit the shower soon, and catch up on all things iPhone.

Being Driven In

It was a restless night last night. Not because I fancied the pink iPhone 5C or anything like that. I had a high fever and woke up a few times with coughing fits. Every couple of hours or so, I was up. Myalgia and headache plus all the trimmings. It got better with some vitamin C and brufen, but I had to cross the line this morning. One word. Augmentin.

Not a fab of antibiotics, but I was feeling really rough. The myalgia was so bad that I had to crawl up like a ball, and I have a full list today both at Subang and ParkCity. I can't cancel the clinics as there were plenty of stuffs needing sorting out.

Anita insisted that I use her driver for today. So, here I was, all juiced up from the morning meds - no, I skipped the antihistamines - at the back of the car blogging and catching up with the news.

Hmm! I can get used to this actually ......
