High fever Part II

 1st visit in hospital

The first day fell into sick on 17/11(Wed), and the following day his fever was like 38.8 to 40C from the first day to 22/11(Mon). I couldn't sleep from the first day... brought him to clinic but the medicine doesn't work on him, I keep on monitoring on his temperature every 10 minutes. I was kinda worried that he refused to eat, drink. No choice, the 19/11(Fri), we brought him to KPJ, Kajang. My boy was extremely behave and cooperate with all doctor and nurses. The medical officer put us in priority due to his high fever and instructed me to bring my boy to bathroom to take a cold shower from head to toe. I was like "Oh my god, the hospital air-con is already very cold and you want me to put him on cold water!!" My hubby asked me to listen to the medical officer instruction otherwise my son won't recover soonest. No choice, I brought my son to bathroom and take a cold shower, and can't believed that my son never cry and scream nor complaint that the water is very cold, and he really listened to me and the nurses. (i think my son knew that he is really sick). Amazingly, my son body temperature has reduced. Then we proceed to see Doctor, and my son is not necessary to admit unless his body temperature is still high after 3 days, then we need to bring him back to hospital for blood test. 

 2nd visit

 22/11 (Mon), the fever still high as 40C and bring my son for 2nd visit in KPJ Kajang. At this time, my son is required to do a blood test. He was such a brave boy, never cry or refused on the blood test. (we asked him why he never cry, he replied us "daddy, mummy and jie jie asked me don't panic and cry mah, so I don't want to cry lor!) After waiting for an hour, the blood test report is out, report shown that no dengue (thanks god) but viral fever and this fever will bring up to 10 days... oh no, still got 3 days to go!!

While waiting for the report, we were eating at the cafeteria. slurps~~ the cantonese yee mee was so delicious!~ my daughter is very particular on foods, and she really can finish the whole plate of noodle means that is really yummy to her. I'm proud of her during this period, because she helped me to take care of her brother and supportive to her brother. (Although they fight everyday, but when someone is not feeling well they sure will give supportive and look after each other) Hubby & me supposed not allow jie jie to follow us to hospital due to there are many virus and germs in the hospital especially emergency department, but she told us that she wants follow because she wants to be with her brother and accompany him if her didi cries. Then hubby said let her follow la since didi also need someone to play with in the hospital. She also bought some story books for her didi to read, daddy the first time to become the kids story teller!!

What happens after we back home from 2nd visit hospital, I called my mom, and my dad & mom was super duper worried on their grandson!!! They can't even work, and rush to "Chinese wholesale house" @ Jalan Ipoh to buy this super expensive powder which is called 箭猪粉 in English called as "porcupine bezoar" what's so special about this powder, I will tell you more on my next blog! According to my mom, she bought less than 3gm and cost her RM300... on that night itself, my mom & dad rush to my house and feed my son for 1gm and guess what??!!! My son sweats non-stop till 2nd day morning. And the body temperature from 40C to 37.5C after eating 箭猪粉 "porcupine bezoar" in 30 minutes!! Heard from my dad that only certain Chinese herbal shop sell this powder and the price is up to RM10,000 above for the first grade and this powder is specialized on infection,dengue and cancer, 100% can heal from the sickness.

On 23/11, Tuesday, my son is fully recovered. Special thanks to all friends given me so much of supportive. But of course my parents letting them to worry on me so much, they afraid I can't handle my son and allowed me to stay at home till my son is fully recovered. (I feel myself lucky because I'm working for my dad, and they are such an understanding boss to me)
