Poor Boy

It started on Wednesday. Zyan had fever, and thus didn't go to his kindergarten class.
So that evening, he had some diarrhea, and had been purging for a bit.
Brought him to see the usual clinic to have some medication.

That night, it was a nightmare for me. He was wakening up every 1-2 hours saying his tummy hurts, and his fever even went as high as 39.something celcius.
Wow wow.

Thursday itself, he continued to purge (always minimally) and probably the stomach cramps caused his lots of discomfort.
Fever was still higher. Occasional vomiting still happened.

He couldn't eat much for those 2 days, like nothing at all.

Friday morning, decided to bring to another doctor. Similar prescription. The doctor suggested to bring to hospital, to prevent further dehydration.

By the time I went home from work, he was still in some pain, and purging still continue although lower in frequency.

So we decided to bring him to the hospital.
Wow. A&E business very good. Waited for 2 hours before seeing the doctor, and then had to wait for the paediatrician came and see him, it was near to 12 midnight.
With the settlement of admission and such, welcome to the new day. :P

This was taken after they put the drip for him, and getting up to the ward:

He's quite a good boy though. Didn't struggle much when they tried to put the drip on him.
Bravo!

Went back home to take a quick shower, and went back to the room to keep my little Zyan company for the night.
Mommy gets to rest on comfy bed at home. :)
The night was also little hellish, as he still need to go to the toilet a few times, and with the drip on him, not easy siah ... ...

Anyway, we got through the night.

Only an event happened at 6am.
His drip came off while we were all asleep.
And guess what, there was quite a bloody scene on him, and the drip came out, so does some of his blood. :P
But he was calmed. It was actually he who called and woke me up.
Of course, such things need professional help.

The nurses were called in. They cleaned him up, and worst still, they had to poke a new place to serve the drip. Ohh gosh! What an event for him.
He still took in his stride, not pain. Just a little more painful than yesterday night.

Doctor said needs more hydration, need to stay to observe.

Hopefully, he can come home quick, and enjoy his toys, rather than hospital bed.

Fighting!

Movie Night

When Star Wars Episode 7 just came out, Karinna arranged a movie night with her friends, and asked me along.
I was then suggesting to her if we would want to bring Zyan for his first movie in a cinema.

To make it easy for him, we actually asked him if he would want to watch Star Wars.
That was when we happened to walk past the cinema at I12 Katong few weeks ago.
And he said he prefers Alvin and the chipmunks.

Oh well. Afterall, he is a kid right?

So today, I bought tickets online for the show. Only 1 cinema showing at 7+pm timeslot. Lucky thing is that it is not too far from my home.

I only told him I would bring him out in the evening. Didn't tell him that I would bring him for a show.
And so, I brought him to Kallang Leisure Park, and as we walked past the cinema area, I pointed out to Star Wars and asked if he wanted to watch.
Then he remembered he wanted to watch Alvin and the Chipmunks.

I just went to toilet, keeping him in suspense.

After the toilet break, I went to pick up my tickets, and showed him.
Can literally see his face brightened up, and so elated he is.
He kept looking and waiting for the signal to enter Hall 2 from the signboard.

As he looked out for it, I went to pick up the popcorn combo set that I bought the tickets together.
Another happy moment for the little boy.
There's popcorn, chips, water bottle, and coke.
All sinful except the water. :P

Of course, we were the first to go in. For that show, he is the first person to enter the Hall for his seat.
There I took a picture of him in the cinema.

He was quite entertained by the show. For short moment, he was dancing on his seat along with the chipmunks' songs.
His laughter also can be quite exaggerative.
With food, drinks and show, he must be quite contented.

At the end of the show, he told me he LOVES it!
So I told him will bring him to see show again in future. Ooooops. Hmmmm

To top his excitement for the day, erh, night, last stop is to his favourite McDonald. LOL/
When I whispered that into his ears, his eyes were glittering. Wow!

I can't help but to irritate him and said we won't go because he hasn't been a good boy lately.
Of course, was just kidding him to see his sad face. Hehehe

All in all, quite uneventful for me, and yet joyful for the boy.
Hope he would have sweet dreams, and stories to tell his friends, if he remembers ... ...
