Sickly Minibean

The parents returned unexpectedly with Minibean this afternoon, and I received a call from Mum when I was in the office.

She had a high fever that wouldn’t go away, thus they had brought her to Singapore to see a GP.

I was generally worried, but work piled up a little too much to handle, thus I didn’t leave as early as I had planned to do so.

Details to why she is unwell are… hazy.

It could be possibly UTI, cos she complained of pain when she was peeing.

By the time I got home, I had wanted to get her some cranberry juice so it would help with her condition.

She wasn’t home when I got back. Parents had brought her out to buy some porridge.

Apparently, she puked her dinner out, and she has the runs for a few times today.

A check of the medication given by the GP, she has some fever medication and.. a form of antibiotics.

But her fever still hasn’t gone down even though it is close to midnight now, and she is crying quite a bit, and getting restless.

It is unlike a flu, or a cold, when you know it is going away.

When you have no idea what is wrong and she is so uncomfortable… I just feel like bringing her to a PD tomorrow.

She just had another bout of runs, with many raisins being the only solids in it. Haha.

I tried feeding her some porridge, yet she is refusing to eat much.

She refused her favourite barley drink, pushed away water.. and just not into the fluids.

She took some of the cranberry juice though she had only sips of it.

I am pretty maxed out myself at this point, and her cries mean hardly any room to concentrate on work.

I am tired but I am given the task to check on her at 1am.

I am worried yet I don’t know what I am worried about.. since I have no concrete idea of what is going on.

And her fever is returning. :(

I hate to see her like that, and being so helpless.

    it is ok if she doesnt want to eat. just make sure she drinks her liquid; milk, water, juices…whatever. and sponge her to keep her temperature down. as long as she is active running around, not to worry. i had mine with fever three days in a row, stopped one day (for me to fall sick) and continue for another 3 days after i am well again!

    i really hope she gets well soon.

    The fever for kids nowsaday wouldn’t go away so fast compared to our time. my daughter had fever for 5 days and was even suspected as dengue. Just make sure to sponge her to keep the temperature down. If you are worried, bring her to see DR again. Hope she will get well soon.

  6. Hi all,
