Flu

 

Both the children are sick again, this time meimei got it worst than korkor.

 

The flu bug was spread from hub to mum to Zethan to Zelyn. I am crossing my fingers and toes in this instance otherwise it would get recirculated and the vicious cycle is going to take forever to halt. Both my mum and Zelyn got it really bad, phlegmy cough and stuffy nose which have been close to a week, longer for my mum.

 

Honestly the kids caught the bug because of mum but she is not helping at all. I mean how would one expect to recover not visiting a doctor which is fine but not even taking medication. Was it not to be understood and do I have to be the nagging one harping on it everyday?

 

Zethan had occasional cough and did not sound that bad except for one occasion before bedtime, he got into a coughing spasm and vomited subsequently. Which could be a good thing, disperse and dislodge the phlegm as it appear he got better after that episode.

 

Zelyn's cough escalate very badly this morning. From the occasional phlegmy cough in the morning only after she woken to the consistent cough in the early morning which irritate her and she woke in frustration. To make matter worst, her nose is totally blocked with mucus and yes as usual most probably that's the culprit causing the back drip and the cough.

 

I had wanted to make a trip to PD this morning but had to be in the office due to some unspoken rule of do not apply on Monday because of meeting! That is one of my major frustration about this current workplace. Once you took leave on a Monday, it appear that you have crossed some unforgiving boundary regardless of how valid the reasons are. Morale of the story is do not fall sick on Monday, kids should not fall sick on Monday, avoid going away on holiday on Monday!

 

Anyhow we will be making a trip to PD this afternoon and fortunately we managed to secure an appointment thus not having to walk-in and wait forever. Hope that the adult and kids had a speedy recovery otherwise I would be mummified for the week as like this morning, she whine and fuss refused to go back to sleep and demand to be carried and pacified. Despite falling asleep, it was a restless one, tossing and turning in her sleep. Get well soon my little princess!
