Diarrhoea & Fever

He recently recovered from a cold which saw him stay home for the past two weeks. Today, he has come down with a fever and a bad tummy. He might also be starting a runny nose (it's so slight that I'm not sure if he is). From what I hear, it seems like quite a few people are falling ill, but I do not know about his classmates.

He hadn't been sleeping well since Sunday. Each night he wakes up at least twice each night, coughing a little, then crying and vomitting, and having a hard time getting back to sleep.

I'm disappointed that he's sick again so soon. I feel he's missing out so much on opportunities to socialise with his classmates and to build his confidence. I'm not so worried about the academic side cos I believe he's still on par with the others (about average).

He only has about 3 months to go before he sits for an assessment by an international school, and about 6 months to go for another assessment by another international school. I'm getting anxious. I can do my part and help him with the academic side but not so much the social skills and confidence building if he keeps falling ill regularly.

I love him lots, but I'm also not looking forward to nursing a cranky monkey so soon again.

At least he's finally completed the last 2 HBOT sessions yesterday. I was looking forward to doing other things like Neurosuit, music, CST, speech therapy, and a maths enrichment programme. Guess those will have to wait...again.

Please do pray for a speedy and complete recovery, for peaceful sleep, and for a less cranky mood! CNY is just several days away and we have a flight to catch!
