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!
