Worms?!

You had been complaining of tummy aches.. but I had thought that you were just pulling my leg, wanting sympathy. So I told Ah Ma to let you be. Why did I say that you wanted sympathy? Because you'd run to mummy saying that you had a "tummy pain pain" and ask me to carry you so that it'll be better. Hhmmm...

Anyway, last night Ah Ma said that your pain seems to be more often and worse. So since Dr Mary had night clinic, we brought you there. Gave you a shower before going. Before that I had to tell you that we were seeing Dr Mary, that she will be giving you medicine so that your tummy wont hurt anymore. You seemed quite ok with that. So when it was our turn, you seemed ok.

Dr Mary said that your tummy had a lot of "wind" so she prescribed medicine and for mummy to stop temporarily the Prolactor (good bacteria) while your tummy recovers from the wind. Next she said that since you were over 2 years old, you needed to take de-worming medications. That was to be taken after you recovered from your windy condition. She said that you needed to take it every 6 months and every time you take it, everyone at home also needed to take the medicine.

When we went home, mummy gave Furbie his medicine while you helped kakak keep your toys. You told me that you were tired, since you did not take your afternoon nap. So after that, mummy fed you your medicine. Phew... it went smoothly. Before feeding you the medicine, I told you that Dr Mary said that you had to take the medicine and that your pain-pain will go away. You told me that you wanted to take the medicine from the yellow spoon that the pharmacist che-che had given you. Ok, so I measured using the syringe then poured onto your spoon. And you happily slurped all the medicine! Yay! Clever boy.

Shortly after going into the room, you kept telling me to turn off the light. I guess you were very tired already. By the time daddy came online, you were already sleeping. Nevermind, daddy will be back today. You'll get to see him (and your new toys) soon.
