Salam dear Imaan,
Mama's now back at the office after staying at the hospital for three days. No-- nothing's wrong with me, I was actually accompanying you. Nothing serious I suppose-- the doctor said it was just a 'common' viral fever ("nothing wonderful or exotic from Africa" he says).
Hmmm.. which your Pak Long (being the nonchalant orthopaedic that he is) commented "Alaa.. dia pun tak tau tu virus apa.. tak da apalah.." Which I hope he was right and I was worried for nothing. Basically I stopped worrying after the first day there seeing how active you were --and also after the doctor confirmed that you're not suspected of pneumonia as sugessted by your Mak Ngah (a bit paranoid, she is.. but good in a sense you'd be more precautioned of your child's health).
Abah is still at Hospital Tawakal right now to clear things out and getting you ready to check out of the hospital. Mama am sorry Mama couldn't be there with you. My so-called 'compassionate' leave was only for three days so I had to be back by today.
But apa pun Alhamdulillah anak Mama dah sihat and the last I saw you this morning, you were still giving me that cheeky smile that you gave when you woke up at 3 a.m last night to play!(and pulled my hair when I pretend to ignore you to continue my blissful slumber.. sigh..)
Missing you already.
Mama.

get well Imaan. i'm sure you're one little fighter.
safurah dear, to be frank, i am one of those paranoid, worry-for-nothing parent! (my husband is a more worse case!). but parents have to be what parents have to be, right. especially when my kids are so prone to sickness and when our dear beloved country is so prone to haze. in fact we have a chart of do's and dont's on our fridge, remembers by heart what medications and the generic-names and the non-generic names and we know that ventolin is much cheaper in KL as compared in my hometown and we know a thermometer is of soo much help and that to switch to non-lactose formula in case of ciritbirit. the lists go on.. but that's how we grow wiser dear.
send my kisses to bubbly Imaan. and you take care too.
wow kak ummi.. i'm impressed with you.. me baru nak blaja2 kenal nama ubat.. piriton ke tahu la.. hehe..
imaan, get well soon.. bile dapat fever ni wah?
ummi-- when I read about Iman's health history, no wonder you're quite conscious ek! But I think you're right, we have to be a bit 'over the top' when it comes to bebudak punya health. Eh Ummi-- do post that chart of do's and don't's of yours in ur blog one of these days-- it'll be truly helpful especially for uninitiated parents like me :P
julie--dia dapat fever last monday. actually masa balik kelantan tu dah demam dah.. mmg risau giler masa nak naik flight.. kalau ikutkan taknak balik tapi taknak kecikkan hati belah mertua pulak sebab ni first time family belah kelantan nak tengok imaan.
Alhamdulillah, bak kata ilish, dgn kelantan's 'natural fresh air' dia sihat je masa kat sana.. weekend masa balik ke KL pun ok.
Monday tu yg tetiba suhu naik.. tu yg terus bawak gi hospital (After kakak mas cerita with a straightface that a friend of hers lost a child sebab lambat detect ada pneumonia.. one lung already a goner and tinggal another lung half working.. sampai hospital malam tu meninggal.. sabar je lah dengar.. mencicit kita bawak imaan ke hospital tawakal malam tu jugak :P)
k.tie mmg hebat sy tahu hehe.
safurah, idlan pon penah kena pneumonia attack masa umur 8bln. simptom dia senang je, prolong cough and flu plus very high fever at nite (betul tak k.tie?) Ongoing fever yg on off, seminggu kite cuti (dr kasi mc actually :p)..cuma mujur x warded.
Mmg phobia, dan kite pon jd cam k.tie, pegi klinik mesti tanye nama ubat utk diigt!
blk ofis, rupanye ramai ofismate yg anak penah kena pneumonia (but not asthma). common sickness amongst urban kids nowadays :(
wahh.. saya tak hebat pon heh heh. i learnt a lot from experience - mostly experience yang tak berapa best. like i said, we just have to do what we have to do. yati's right about the pneumonia. selsema tu selalunya berhingus and batuk berkahak and banyak muntah. if not treated, eventually the infection will go down lower and lower, tu yang sampai kat lung tu. my kids, kalau kena selsema or batuk, the most i give is just 4-5 days. kalau tak baik, hospitallah jawabnya. and do ask and ingat nama2 ubat so kalau jumpa dr lain you can tell what your kid have been taking.
yep, i can share the list abt the dos and donts.
and one more thing to note, asthma and its kind (pneumonia, bronchitis) sekarang ni lebih banyak kena kat budak2 as compared to org tua. they say, bawak budak2 swimming so they can exercise their lungs + to increase their alertness (sesuwaii utk budak2 yang concentration spannya pendek)
wah hebatnye perbincangan kesihatan anak-anak korang.
kite.. speechless aje laa..
hehhe.. by the way.. salam busyuk dari aciksemah buat Imaan. uiksss.. korang pegi rumah selin dok ahad nihs ?
Semah: Pegi pegi.. heheh
yatie and ummi: can you please name any of the medications I should take note of? alahai.. rasa macam parent yg tak bertanggung jawab pulak because I thought bebudak ni tak elok bagi medication selalu :( guess you guys are right and I should be more alert. Imaan dah lama selsema tapi takde laa sampai muntah.. batuk sikit2.. tapi dr check kata takde pneumonia.. but really worried now that k.tie mentioned pro-longed selsema tu bahaya.. mmg dah lama beno selsema tu.. but if dr kata nothing takpe ke ek? risaunye...
wow,kagumnya baca comment2 di atas ni.dh boleh jadi doktor mama2 di atas2 ni:)apa pun,mmg elok benaq kita ambiq tau nama2 ubat ni,generic names n nongeneric.tau indicationnya,contraindi,n yg ptg side effect ubat2 tu.
to kak safurah,lega dgq imaan dh kuaq hosp:)xdelah sampai diag pneumonia ek,alhamdulillah..auntie wani pena warded due to pneumonia last yr:)salam syg buat imaan,moga dia sihat selalu,moga bertambah aktif harapnya:)
takutnya dengar kes2 camni.
hope imaan is much better now.
kesiannya imaan, hopefully dah baik dah kay, asma' pon dpt fever lepas balik drp kelantan.. demam dah kebah tapi still batuk + selsema.. dah seminggu dah tapi still x baik lagi nih, cemana le kite sebagai ibu x jadi paranoid, macam2 dlm kepala tapi bila doa yang baik2 jelah kan.. selamat hari raya! mana gambar imaan pakai baju melayu?? hehe..
ni antara ubat2 yg kuat:
sesema - piriton, actified, clarytine
batuk - ventolin (slalu kalo budak ade asthma/batuk yg berpanjangan/berkahak doc kasik nih, kira kuat giler la)
idlan slalula dpt ventolin & clarytine tuh
kite rasa kalo sesema biasa (not accompanied by batuk/wheezing)..tu kira ok dan biasa
kalo start bunyi wheezing tu kena be alert sket.
idlan kalo sesema biasa kite tak kasik ubat..saje nk train dia develop immunity dia sendiri
TQ all for the input.
Imaan demam lagi hari ni (monday). Mama dia kat office menggelupur je fikir keadaan anak kat rumah bila dengar temperature dia naik lagi.. hai hai.. dah la baru start kerja and under probation lagi.. so takleh nak ambil cuti suka2 (plus last week dah amik cuti compassionate leave for 3 days pun)
AM so so worried and can't wait to get home :( :( :(
