my lil baobei have been sick since tuesday evening. received call around 4.45pm while at work from my maid telling me that darius is running a fever. that morning alreadi find him restless and abit warm but no fever. so i called my brother who's at home and ask him to help me check out whether the maid is taking the temperature correctly and let me know the temperature. he text me 5 mins later telling me tat it's 38degree. finished work and then cab home. halfway my dad called and asked me to drop off at clementi that he will go and fetch me home and there should b no rush bcos he's still hafing his nap. reached home abt 6.45pm.

once home, then fetch him to the clinic at yew tee and his temp was 38.9. gifen brufen and parcetemol and told to gif alt every 3hrs. took leave on wednesday so that i can take care of him as maid cannot handle the medication and stuff. wanted to go back to work on thursday but then his fever didnt went down and was already rather worried since moring as his temp went up instead. highest was 39.2. after discussing with my sister, decide to bring him down to kkh that night. so last night we went to kkh at about 10.30pm.

went to children emergency and they stick a urine bag on him as they wanted to know what is the cause of the fever. he have no cough, flu and still very active and alert. no sigh of pain during urinating as well. but just to double confirm. we got called very soon, maybe because he have quite high fever at 38.4 degree even thou he just took medication about 2hrs ago. they gaf him another dose of parcetemol during triage. doctor said his throat was very red and most prob the cause of it. urine test came out okie. so jus took the medication for his throat and fever then went hom.

4.20am took his temp and it was 40.2 degree. scare the hell out of me and i wake my dad up immediately. he told me to feed him medication and observe. didnt went to work because too shag to take care of him and also worry that he will have high fever. so took his temp at 9am again and it was still 40.2 degree. fed him his parcetemol and rush down to kkh. caught in the jam! reached there around 11am and registration then off to see doctor. they insert the bullet onto his buttok. it was said that that is very effective. they also did a blood test on him. temp reading was 38.9 degree.

waited 1hr for the blood test reading and it shows that he's having viral infection. the bullet doesn really help much as well. after more then an hr, it's still 38.4 degree. doctor said tat he will have fever for at least 3-5days and nothing to worry about. unless he is not active or not alert or if temp hit 41 degree. then gotta go back and admit him. thought that need to burn my pocket again for the a&e charges but was waive off because i went back within 24hrs.

went back via train as he seems much better and alreadi not much money left. wanted to buy a thermoscan thermometer bcos the ear thermometer i haf is driving me crazy as i always get diff reading. plus with a thermoscan thermometer, it is easier for us to do the reading when he's asleep. but the cheapest cost about $158. still pondering because am only left with the last $200. then i went to yew tee and saw this brand, beuer, selling very cheaply at $89. quite easy to use. now i got a thermoscan thermometer it will be much easier.

hope darius get well soon! super headache to see him like tat. and i gotta go back to office tml bcos ive not been going in for days. no pay leave is killing me.
