Sigh!~

Just started work after 3 days of EL. Sarah got admitted to the hosp again, due to high fever. This time, not only does she have to go through blood test, she also have to go through a chest x-ray. Kesian dia. The paed discovered an onset of pneumonia. But he said not to worry coz it's very treatable. Well, after a course of IV antibiotics and a regime of other medicines, she was discharged last night, alhamdulillah. She looks better, although she looked smaller coz she lost weight. Her cheeks aren't as chubby as before. Sigh!~ Cian my little angel.

The causes, the dr said, probably because of the nursery. He described it as a place where all the germs gather... well, it is quite true. I mean, the nursery where we sent sarah was alright, caretaker were treating her well... However, we can't control if any parents whose children are sick sends the kids to the nursery kan. I saw some kids with runny nose and cough, but there's nothing much that i can do about it. So the dr said, the best advice he could give is to get sarah out of the nursery, and that's what Dan and i are doing. Today, she's staying with her tok mak and tok bapak... monday, dont know yet. Sigh!~ Not easy to find a babysitter tht we can trust nowadays. So, i'm thinking of applying unpaid leave until the end of the year in the search of a babysitter. My maid to babysit my baby??? Hell no. hahaha..

Hmmm.. can't really concentrate in work coz all i have in my head is the well being of my daugter and hubby (who's now at home, having a fever... isk.. lepas sorang, sorang la pulak... huhuhu...)

i. sarah

Hmm.. sarah had lost weight quite significantly, since she got warded last month. Sigh!~ After about a week following her discharge (oh.. did i mention we saw Tun Dr M & wife at the hosp and i greeted him :) ) she caught a flu and cough. She had grown to hate taking medication, thanks to some lousy imported nurse at the hosp who forced her to take the meds, not that she needs to be forced. She sooo hates it.. and now it's just impossible to make her cooperate and not force her. Sigh!~ When she started coughing, her phlegm was building and she lost appetite. She did't want to eat at all. If we're home, she'll just have breast milk, nothing else. Try kasik roti pun tak mau. Huhu... and then, last friday, she started vomiting.. Probably because of teh phlegm build up ke apa, tak tau la.. but we went to see the paed anyway. Risau woo... Paed said that her lungs sounded ok, even with the phlegm.. and because she's always coughing, that would be the causing factor why she lost her appetite. So now, i guess we'll have to wait until the coughing is gone for her to start to enjoy eating again.

ii. Stressed @ Work

Urghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.. i thought my stress of working with idiots are over when i transfered unit... I was sooo, soooooo WRONG!! Urgh.. hate to say this but... i should've stayed at the previous unit. Huhuhu...

The problem now is that my immediate superior is a bit too smart, licking the superior's asses the way they like it and getting away with all his shit and the head of division is so dumb, but at the same time stubborn... bodoh sombong punya kes. Things about work and office satu hal la mmg geram atas kes2 tertentu. Tension coz we know that sth is not right, but there's nothing tht we can do abt it. Benci tau. Yang menambahkan menyampah, when they started not to respect orang punya personal life. Bengang tahap dewa la nih.

I'd been absent one whole week when sarah was warded, so i had to request for EL. Ingat orang suka2 ke nak cuti? The head dumbass boleh question, betul ke anak sakit? Like hello... dia ingat aku ni macam dia ke? macam2 alasan sbb tak nak masuk ofis? Slagi ada mende luar kalau boleh dia nak attend, even kelas menghias kek, yang obviously HE wouldn't put it to good use. lagi sekor ni plak, kacau my weekend with smses, one of which reminding me to be at work on monday coz there're so many things to do.. and i was like.. hello, you think i'm like you, suka2 hati bila nak masuk ofis and suka2 hati bila tak nak datang? Spesis yg b4 dtg call P.A bos check bos ada ke tak, and kalau he's not around kau pun sama tiba2 ada alasan for leave?? Please la.. aku bukan jenis makan gaji buta ok. These people, diorg ni dah slalu sgt guna macam2 alasan utk cuti, tu yang dok query orang lain, betul ke tak cuti bersebab. I wish they would take a good look at themselves in the mirror before questioning people on their commitment to work when they themselves ONLY commit to work when they get benefits. Macam tu ke komitmen kerja? My ass. These two dumbos are so full of office politics. I just hope that i don't get high bp or any stress related diseases having to work with the two jackasses.

Warded!

Last week, i had to take emergency leave for the whole week coz my darling little princess wasn't well. She had a high fever and had to be admitted to the hosp for like 6 days. It started on sunday, got a bit better after a dose of paracetamol and later tht night, or rather early monday morning at around 4am, he fever hit 38 deg and we hurried to the ER at pantai. She was given suppository and was allowed to go home but we intended to see her paed anyway later tht day. When we did, around 11, her fever peaked at 40.4 deg and the dr had to admit her.

The little girl had to go through 2 series of blood tests and also had an IV into her little hand. Cian dia. Mommy sedih tengok sarah nangis bila kena cucuk. :( But, difficult as it was, it had to be done.. and i'm thankful that her paed was really good so the process was done quickly and didnt leave any black and blue marks as it would if some amateur drew the blood. Paling best, later in the afternoon when her paed came for visit, she made an angry face and babbled something that sounded like scolding the paed. Hahaha... must've gotten it from the daddy. :)

However, during the time she was warded, she maintained a good appetite (even with hosp food!), wasn't cranky or difficult, didn't vomit or being not herself, so the paed said there's nothing to be too worried about, as it was a case of a viral fever which usually takes longer to subside. And subsided it did, after 5 days, as the paed had told us after her blood test was done.

Alhamdulillah, our little girl is good now. Syukur.

P/S: my MIL advised us to cukur rambut sarah habis coz kata org tua, rambut dr dlm perut tak elok, nnt baby selalu sakit.. ye ke?? any inputs, please inform ya. thnx. :)
