Sick week

It has not been a good past week for us, me and Terry, both fall sick. First, it was me, last week down with cold. It is just plain cold with body pain and tired. No fever, no throat infection, just only throat dry and flu. The mucus fall out is like water, can drip out when I bow down my head. The next day, quickly went to see doctor, so that I won't pass it to Terry.

But I think it is hard to avoid also, which I already try not to keep close distance with him. It can't stay far when feeding, talking to him or sometimes he wants me to hug and somemore we sleep together. I also avoid already, we slept opposite direction.

For me after 3 days, med finish I began recover, thats not the end, I began to cough..Argghh..What the heck is this! There goes, finally on Sunday morning, Terry sneezed and I know it is not something good going to happen. In follow of that, mucus all round his nose and coughing with phlegm (mild). Quickly after church, went to paed (Dr. Ooi at OUG) there to buy flu med and gave to Terry.

This morning, mucus still a lot, I kept cleaning his nose and cook at the kitchen at the same time, to and fro almost pengsan. As see his coughing more serious, can't wait till daddy back to bring us there, I took him to see doc. 1 hour waiting there, 3 patients before us. 8 out of 6 patients there is with flu and cough. Luckily the boy can sit still for like 45 mins holding one toy. He simply love car, another big kid came in with a robot toy car and began to play and roll on floor. He wants that and almost start whining for it, if I'm not distract him saying another table also have car.

After long waiting, once see doc, uuuuwa uwa waaa...burst into loud cry. The loudest among all kids and baby before him. His loud cry makes me got to raise my voice when talking to doc. Very quick one after check his lungs and prescribed the med. Still not stop crying, toys, sweets all can't stop him. I put him outside alone first then only I can continue to talk with doc for like 1 min. Once he is out the room immediate stop cry and stood still waiting for me. After taken the med, he still not willing to go and want to play the Lego there. I just told him play it last round then we got to go. Luckily he understands me and let go the toy after playing it last round.

Hard to get a cab during noon time and got to tambah-lima-ringgit only the driver willing to take me home. Quickly settle the mee suah for Terry, 45 min feeding him, take med and he nap now. Damn tired, me too...

I'm not on cough med since it is not so terrible yet, hopefully drink some leong sui can get rid of it cause I start feeling better since yesterday. If can't then got to see doctor again. I have a record recently, once sick got to see doctor twice only can recover. So bad!

Bryan and Brandon's Mama said...

Oh dear....it's so hard to care for a sickly boy while you're unwell yourself. Take care ok. Weather very crazy these days. Hope Terry gets well soon. Btw, Bryan also the loudest at the clinic. I suspect they are both afraid of doctors after the accident.

Blame it to the bad weather...

Darren also fell sick and I think I am getting it too as my throat feels dry too.

Drink more water and hope both of you get well soon.
