Since the weekend, I have been playing nurse to three babies – 2 small babies and one big baby to be exact. (That explain the lack of blogging & blog hopping) and I feel really tired.
Saturday, gone back to in-laws. FIL took JS (yup, just grandfather and granddaughter) out to play the whole afternoon, she skipped her nap. Later in the night, we took her to SIL’s boss house for Raya open house. JS’s face started to flushed at night follow by a few sound of cough. “Uwek” twice. Called in the night early. But she didn’t sleep well, her body was really hot at 1.30am. No paracetamol at SIL’s place. 2.30am, hubby decided to sent her to the 24hours policlinic. Before leaving the house, she “uwek” again. Got the maid to clean up the place, me took care of WH who is also down with some cough and flu. Doc said JS’s had high fever (39C). I realize each time when she exert herself and get over excited, she will get fever.
Sunday, suppose to be SIL’s birthday, originally plan to have western lunch at Bangsar, but since JS’s sick and didn’t wake up till 10am, lunch appointment cancelled…just tar pau and eats in.
Night, back home. After dinner, call in the night early again. At 11pm, hub complaint about tummy ache and since then he has been puking and purging none stop. He was so weak that he can barely stand and walk. Drove him to the nearby 24hours clinic at 1.30am. Left the kids who were all asleep under maid’s care. Came back an hour later, WH already woke up, crying fratically looking for us and the maid soothing him. At this moment, I realize how important it is to have family members staying near by.
This clinic, eventhough there wasn’t any patient, but we still have to wait for a good 15mins to see the doc. Hubby was so weak, he kept asking when the doc would see him. (the last time I sent JS in for assthma also I was made to wait for a good 10-15minutes). When we arrived, I went to register and the receptionist would press the bell to “WAKE UP” the doctor . I’m very sure the doctor must be sleeping in one of the room, if not he wont take a good 15 minutes to see a patient. ( I suppose he’s wearing a sarong, he needs the 15 minutes to change, maybe brush his teeth and comb his hair before he’s ready to receive the patient). What kind of doc’s professionalism is that. If this is really an emergency, the 15minutes would be really crucial. Anyway , we waited that 15 minutes and the cosultation time is less than 5 minutes…and the doc doesn’t even say what causes my dear hub to be so sick. I have to asked “is it food poisoning” and doc “looks like it” and never even say much. after that just said “ok” (that means we can go…no further explanation, nothing) what to do..this is the nearest clinic available at that wee hour.
Monday , continue to nurse the 2 sick but active babies and also look after a very weak big baby.
Tuesday….everything back to normal!
