Sick before CNY :(

Ashley is down with a cold since yesterday.  Her nose is stuffy and she was sneezing.  This morning I brought her to the paed and reached the clinic before it was opened.  Very “kan cheong” because CNY is coming.  Before she got the cold, Ashley had 2 huge ulcers on her upper lip and for the past few days, she was pretty cranky and refused to drink water.  Had to bribe, coax, scold and etc 🙁  I applied the oralgel for her but didn’t seem to work.  Ashley is pretty prone to getting ulcers despite drinking lots of water and eating one fruit a day.  I checked with her paed and was told that it’s hard to determine why or how ulcers come about.  She suggested that I start giving her some multi-vits.  Ashley has not taken any multi-vits/ vitamin C before but takes 1 tablespoon of Millenium Juice (cactus juice) every day.

When we were at the clinic, Ashley kept asking where her doctor is.  The clinic opened at 8.30am but the doc normally comes in around 8.40am.  When she saw her doctor, she was so happy and eager to go into the room 🙂  Of course we couldn’t because there was another family before us.  I was reading a pamphlet on cerebral palsy and she kept interrupting me every few seconds to ask me when is her turn to go in *slaps forehead*  When her turn came, she was so happy and sat on the chair all by herself.  I used to have to carry her and have her sit on my lap and hold her hands to keep her from fidgeting or crying 🙂  What a big change…..guess my baby is a big girl now.  After going to the paed, she wanted to go to school and refused to go home.  I wanted to keep her home so that she won’t spread the germs to her classmates but she cried.  So have no choice but to let her go to school eventhough we were almost an hour late 🙂

    She sounds very much like Sherilyn! Hey, the haze is back and people with sensitive throats should take special care. Have you tried letting Ashley gargle her throat with salt water?
