Jo2 had high fever

This is a back dated post.



14 Aug - Jo2 had fever in the middle of the night. Gave him PCM, but the fever still wouldn't go below 38. So, the next morning I brought him to see doc.



15 Aug - Fever still at the range of 38.5 - 39.3. To my worried, I brought him to see doc again. The temp. shoot up to 40.1 when Dr. Sim checked on him. That's really unbelievable, but according to Dr.Sim, they changed their termoscan every 3 months, so it's very accurate and can be trusted. So, I have no choice but to let him stay in hospital to monitor for the next few days. His fever shoot up to 40 again at around 10pm, so the nurse called up Dr. Sim. They gave him vol tron again, which mean Jo2 had 2 vol tron w/thin 6 hours in gap and the temp. still high.



16 Aug- Blood test results shown that his white blood cell is low, which mean his immune system is weak now. So, the next step is to check on his urine. Whooops!!! Jo2 had bladder infection, and his urine is very dirty........He has to be on antibiotics for the next 5 days. This is the first time, I heard that kids can get bladder infection, normally I thought on adults can get this, esp women.



17 Aug - Jo2 body temp. dropped a bit @ the range of 38.3 - 38.8. But he has no appetite to eat at all, even his favorite milk. He has to be on drip for overnight since he doesn't take plenty of water as Dr. Sim said he needs plenty of water to clean the bladder.



18 Aug - No fever at all for the whole day. But, we stayed in hospital until 20 Aug (Monday)b'coz we have to finish the whole course of antibiotics.


That's how I spent my weekend last week. Papa2jojo and Jo1 pay us visit every nite, and Jo1 tole me that she likes to stay in hospital too. Anyway, I am glad that she had been a good girl while mommy and didi is away from home. She finished her homework after school everyday, she even finished all her school holidays homework on the first day of school holiday begin.

Toddler teaches toddler to brush teeth

I bought a toothbrush for Jo2 ever since his first teeth grow. Till now, the toothbrush is still in good condition b'coz he dislikes to brush teeth. All the while, I only use handkerchief to wipe his teeth until he saw this blog that my sis#3 wrote about how her son brush teeth. This morning Jo2 told me that he wanted to brush teeth, so I fast fast go and pour water on a cup, put toothpaste on his toothbrush and I told him that I help him to brush. But, he insist that he wanted to be like Vernon, he wants to hold the cup and brush his teeth on his own. So, I let him brush on his own, even though he didn't brush it the right way but I think it's a good start to cultivate a good habit.

Jo1's formal school

Finally, I received a letter from Union Primary School that my Jo1 is accepted. I went to the school on the 3 Aug to make the confirmation again along with her birth cert, and paid 50cents for her badge which she has to wear it on the first day of school. She will be in 1C ( C = chocolate) which is the 2nd class after blue. Her class has 32 person that consist of 16 boys and 16 girls. I was surprised to see that so many parents oredi did their confirmation b4 me. The clerk also gave me a copy of school's rules of regulations where parents have to inform their children. The orientation day is on 26 Dec, 2006 which lasts for 3 hours.......When Jo1 knows the news, she was so excited that she is going to "BIG" school. It's "BIG" to her in the sense that the size is bigger and the head count in class as compared to her kindi now.
