A Dozen for Daddy

While I was at work today, Anita and the boys had been out sorting out the groceries. Did they get anything for me? Of course they did. Or more to the point, Irfan did. I could trust him to make sure I would be kept hydrated. He bought me a dozen carton of my coffee. Of the Dutch Lady variety of course!

Cheers!

Apartment Time

After returning from Great Eastern Mall, we settled down and then was surprised that there were no water when we wanted to hit the shower. Hmmm! I guessed Syabas was at it again. No water during the weekend - usually it was the low water pressure. And this was despite the heavy downpour in Klang Valley in the last few days.

Anyhow, we decided to pack up and head to the apartment for the night. A nice bak I thought for the boys, Irfan especially after his ordeal at the dentist.

It was 11 pm and both of them were still with their iPad. They planned to wake up late tomorrow morning .....

No Walk Today

The weather had been awful all day. And as I finished my clinic to get home to prepare for the photo walk, Anita called me to say that irfan had been crying all morning with a tooth ache. We needed to get him to a dentist.

Getting an emergency dental appointment on a Saturday afternoon at such short notice was never easy, let alone to ER somebody who could handle children. But we were in luck. Anita managed to get an appointment at 3pm at Great Eastern Mall.

And the dentist was a great one. Although Irfan was having his usual tantrum at the beginning, the dentist spent time with him and won him over. He tolerated his X-rays and had his fillings done, with minimal fuss. It was awesome. And Anita was pleased.

By the time it was over, it was already almost 5pm. It was still raining heavily outside. Even of I made it to the meeting point for the walk, with the wearer being this dull and wet, plus the fact that I did not know any of the group member, I decided against it. Spent the time with my boys instead. And we had tea at Alexis. Irfan hardly had anything to eat all day because of the ache, and finished his plate of pasta in record time.

Irfan was no longer in pain after the visit. We would definitely go back to see the same dentist if the boys had problems from now on.

The Follow-up

The drama was almost over. Almost. Irfan still complain of pain but in actual fact, he was not. He loved the attention really. Today, he had his follow-up with the Surgeon and things were much better.

Now, he was allowed to have a bath. I was on call today, so, I was not able to see how he coped. Apparently, he managed to soak himself in the bath without much problem. He was wearing trousers by the afternoon although he was still walking gingerly.

So, I would expect more drama when I get home after my morning rounds tomorrow ....

Settling for the Evening

It certainly had been a long day. When we finally about to settle down for bed, Idlan had a vomit. He had been complaining of stomach ache all afternoon. His classmates at school had been having sniffles and cold, and I think he had caught the virus off them.

I wouldn't be surprised if he start having a temperature from tomorrow morning. Anita had also been sneezing all day. The most bubbly person in the house was probably Irfan. He had been puttering about all evening.
