Viral Fever

BB Caleb developed fever, shot up to 38.6 degrees. It was really nerve wrecking trying to bring the temperature down.Well, sad to say blur Dadddie and Mummie actually tried to bathe him and this is totally wrong. Once Bb Caleb was lowered into his bath tub, he screamed in horrow and practically 'jumped' out of the tub. He must be badly tramatised by this sudden change of temperature. Daddie and Mummie really felt very helpess and guilty about inflicting such pains, but really at a loss on what to do.It was not until the next day until we realised how serious the consequences were. BB Caleb could have gone into thermal shock, oh my oh my!!!

Caleb darling.. do forgive us !!!

After a few dosage of paracetemol, BB Caleb's fever still persisted. Well, being very kan jiong parents, we brought BB Caleb to the 24hour clinic at Mt A. The nurse helped to take the temperature and it went up to 38.7 degrees. Due to the fever, we are isolated in a tiny room with 4 white walls. The doctor on duty assessed BB Caleb and said since there are no signs of infection, BB Caleb might have contracted the viral fever which should go away by 2-3 days. We suspected that BB Caleb might has caught this fever bug while shopping at Robinson yesterday. True enough, by tuesday, BB Caleb is back to his own self again under the TLC of Papa, Mama, Ah Mah and Ah Gong.
