Irfan demam lagi..

He has been healthy for about a month and suddenly the evil virus struck him again.

We picked him up Monday last week from the daycare, he had a fever about 102 F.

Tuesday was supposed to be his echo day but got canceled. They won't do echo to a sick child. I wouldn't let him go for echo either... he needs to be as calm as possible. We sticked with E&T check up to see how his ears doing (after all the ear infection trials he's gone through) and to our suprise he has double ear infection! Oh my goodness bila masa pulak kena ear infection lagi. I thought they got cleared up early weeks ago. I saw him digging his ears multiple times, thought of going to the doctor but rasa mcm tak perlu sbb Irfan tak sakit pun, takkan kena ear infection. Haish I guess you never know. So we went back home about 5 ish, sampai2 rumah checked on Irfan's temp and to our suprise again his temp was 106F. We flipped out, terus getting ready to drive back to the ER at Bartlesville that is 50 mins away. So on Tuesday we drove to Tulsa (1.5 hr drive) to Batlesville (50 mins drive) back home (50 mins drive) Back to Bartleville (50 mins drive) and finally back home at 11 PM (another 50 mins drive). Thank god Irfan's temp turun sikit after makan tylenol and motrin and stayed about 101-102 F.

Wednesday I worked half day.

Thursday Irfan still demam. Took him to see the doctor. Same advice, ' keep giving him fluids'.

Friday demam.

Saturday demam dah reda. Normal temp alhaldulillah.. went to see the doc. Ears look like they are getting better. But the look and behavior sure tell me that HE'S NOT. He's so clingy, fuss all the time, only wants mommy, tak nak makan, merengek... memangla budak sakit kan. But sakit ape lagi....

Sunday still not showing any improvement. No fever but he's acting like he's really sick. Risau but at the same time dah tak larat. I've missed days of work, mesti affect my work perfomance. But family is always first... ntah la. Susah betul nak juggle between work and being a mom.
