boon's log 4307.07: Ab's Holiday/MC week...

The past week was supposed to be Ab's mid-term break from school. It was supposed to be a stress-free week for the Mommy and daddy, rushing from work to school and baby-sitter's, and of course, also a little break for the little one from school - but I think it is more of the former than the latter.

However, the Friday just before the school break, Ab caught a bad cold/flu bug from school - a few of her classmates were already down with the virus since the beginning of the week.

It was so bad for Ab that she shivered in the middle of the night, with fever up to ~39C, and we had to rush her to the A&E at 5AM... talk about a stress-free week. And the doctor gave her 9 different types of medicine (!!!).


Ab's 9 type of medicine...

Poor girl. At first we were afraid that it was H1N1 Flu-A virus. The doctor took a swab from her nostrils for the labs, and in an hour, we were told that the results were negative - what a relief!!!

Anyways, she got better speedily with the help of the medicine(s)... just in time for school to start again... what a school break. Good thing we did not have any vacations planned for this week, else it would have been a worse let-down.

boon out...
