HFMD suspected!!

Carecorner called to inform that Ryan was found with 2 mouth ulcers!
We were advised to bring him to the doctor as soon as possible :( Meanwhile, he was kept in teacher's room, isolating from the rest of his N1A class. Sigh, if this is confirmed, there will be a total of 3 such cases in his class alone. The recovery time usually takes at least 3 days. How am I going to take leave during this busy work week? Mummy's head is spinning :S


After a good check, the doctor confirmed he is NOT infested with HFMD. Yippee!!!!
Those are not mouth ulcers, just some heaty spots :P
Anyway, we got to monitor his condition as there are already cases of this disease in his class. Lots of cooling water is a must!

It is actually Lingyang water, boiled Antelope's Horn strip. This herb really helps to 'cool' down the heat and rid of fever, sore throat etc. Don't know how true is the effect, at least it works wonder for our family.
The taste is rather acquired. Ryan hates it even when it is mixed with his favourite Ribena drink. But mummy has her way :P

"Do you want to play with your thomas train set? Yes? Finish this cooling water."
No exception to any plead or scream or cry or whatsoever.
Well, Ryan bottoms up every time :D This mummy is super hard-hearted :D
I'll try to video the bargaining session (of drinking this cooling) with Ryan next time. Sure to burst some laughing gas :D
