[Qi 1y6m] Big Small Eyes

11 Sep 2009, Friday


On Friday morning, I was shocked to see Qi's left eye.






Her left eye's lid was swollen and reddish. She kept on rubbing her left eye while saying "癢癢!". We guess that it's mosquito bite. Since it is time for her to take her 18 months injection, I asked the paed to check on her eyes as well.


On the way to paed visit, she suddenly said this non-stop "BA BEL ..... BA BEL" while trying to reached something behind kakak (Qi sat on kakak's lap). Kakak had no idea what she's talking about and I suddenly realised that kakak didn't put on her safety belt. This little girl was actually trying to say "绑BELT"! We were laughing non-stop and of course kakak had to put on the safety belt (for safety & for Qi!)


When she saw the nice soft-spoken paed, again she cried furiously, worried for his painful poke again. The paed told me that she can't have her 18 months injection until her left eye recovered. The paed did a thorough check on her, pulling up her shirts. Qi continued to cry, screaming "mi ..... mi .....", begging me to help her. She even pulled down her shirt and said "close". Despite the chaos, I found it really funny and can't help laughing out loud.


Today, Saturday, we are relief that Qi's eye is getting better. Not so swollen as before but she still has a pair of "big small" eyes.

Pneumococcal vaccinations reduce H1N1 death!

I've got an important information, from both my sister and my friend. Both conveying the same massage to me.

Today in the Sun newspaper, there were 3 new cases of death, adding to total of 62 cases in Malaysia. Out of the 3 cases, 2 were of children and both died from pneumonia. I read in a letter sent in by a reader, saying that those who died of H1N1 are mainly due to pneumonia. BUT, children can take pneumococcal vaccinations in order to prevent it! The kids might still get H1N1 (touch wood touch wood) but has 30% lower risk of dying! Please see the full letter version from below link:

Coincidently, when I called my sister to tell her this, she told me the same thing! Today, her kids paed told them that getting pneumococcal vaccinations very important. It's better to be safe than to be sorry.

So, I just want to share this to all my friends, hope this will be useful to fight this awful virus!

[翔2Y7M, 淇1Y6M] 打针. SG LONG H1N1

带两个小瓜去打针了,疹所满满的生病小孩.

还好医生给我们进另一间房间,因为只打预防针,不看病,所以不用排队.

问了医生,说不会影响H1N1药物的效力,但这针也只是对平常的伤风感冒有效而已.

为何我还是给孩子们打呢? 因为我听说我们那儿的H1N1很严重.

SG LONG学校关了,因为好多学生受传染,昨天还听到说有位学生去世了!

我们今天也没有给翔上幼儿园了,再看看迟些怎么办吧.我怕怕呀!!!
