Too much

After a great CNY food, gathering and late night mahjung and poker games, I were down with germ infection.

It started on 4th day morning when I woke up with sore throat and cough. It got worse on 5th day of CNY when I developed high fever, body ache and headache. Stayed in bed the whole morning till hubby sent me to clinic around 2pm. I have never been that sick and weak in my life! Totally knocked out, and feverish. All I could do was to lie down and sleep.

Doctor gave diagnosis of "jangkitan kuman" (germ infection). So he prescribed me a bunch of medication. Really a heap as for the first time in my life, I had a serious sickness and need to take that lot of medication!

Luckily hubby was still around on Monday and Tuesday. He helped to take care of the kids when I were in bed. Never had been sick like that before. Felt helpless but grateful hubby was helping out with the kids.

Got better on Tuesday and in time for the kids' schools which started on Wednesday. Nevertheless, still no cold, spicy and oily food for me. My throat has not fully recovered and all those CNY titbits are very tempting in front of me. Sigh!

As for Jamie, he is recovering from the forehead wound. The dead skin should come off by itself in few days time. Been to the hospital twice, last time was last Saturday to re-dress his wound as it bled again. Hope he will not be so naughty and climb here and there. It sure hard to cope with an active toddler!
