Deborah's Birthday and Fever!

My little girl turned 2 on the 4 Feb 2008.

But starting on the 30th Jan, Deborah fell sick. She was down with fever wnd has no other symptoms. With medicine, taking after much hoaxing every 6 hours, the fever subsided. All in all, the fever lasted for almost 5 days. The last two days was worst. She has light cought coupled with running nose. Being unsure of her situation, I stay up late to make sure her fever do not go too high.

In celebration of her birthday, my family book a chalet at Pasir Ris Downtown East from Sunday 3 Feb to 5 Feb. Bad timing, but giving thanks to God, in between the medicine (4 hours), we mamanged to squeeze some activities for the kids. The family had a good time at the Explorer Kids, a place for climbing and ball pool. Deborah really enjoyed herself. We went at about 8pm and the place, being also Sunday, was nearly empty. Debroah was able to climb around by herself without fear of runinng over by older kids. Moreover, at that last hour of operation, Rachael and myself also join in, as the attendents close their eyes.

Thanks given to Racheal for taking care by carrying Deborah. Deborah had problem sleeping as her nose was blocked and her had to breath through her mouth and cannot lie flat.

Monday was her birthday, but the fever still comes. When her grandparents and Rachael's sister came to celebrate Deborah birthday, she happen to be in between her fever cycle. Quickly we had cake cutting and candle blowing and photo taking. She like it. Lunch was terrible as the fever was back. Both Rachael and myself do not finished the lunch at Sakae Sushi.

Aternoon, Josef prayed for good weather and God granted it. He had a great time at Wild Wild Wet with Stephanie.

Evening, we went Changi Point for dinner. Praise God, Deborah after her afternoon anp, she seemed better. After dinner, I brought her for a some motor car ride, She drives very well all by herself!

The children left for home with the grandparents, supposedly to leave time for Rachael and myself. But no good. I fell sick!

I continued to be sick for the next few days. It was so bad for me that on the first day of new year on Thursday, I had to go on drip. I had headaches and it made me a need to lie down. I was very quiet at reunion dinner and did not go anywhere the next few days. Finally, energy is back on Saturday evening and today 10 Feb, I am well.

But, but, but, Rachael also fell sick. Her fever start on the first day of new year and I belive it will last till next Tuesday. Thank God, she has no headache, running nose or cough. So in between the fever cycle, she can still do her tuitoring presentation materials. She has no appetite.

The worst has yet been over, Josef began to fell sick yesterday. As a child, fever is a terrible thing and he vomit. We have to make sure he has enough water.

Who will be next? My father or my maid?
