Virus attack!!

Got a call from Auntie Jenny just before lunch. Demi was feeling feverish again :( This time bad cough and runny nose had returned too. Seems like it was a bad flu and the usual GP medication could not 'kill' it by the root. Mummy made an last mintue appointment with Dr Veronica Toh at Raffles Hospital on the same day afternoon. Really grateful that Boss Wilbert gave the go-ahead for this urgent leave application, without even asked why.

Demi gave me that come-sayang-me look when mummy arrived at Auntie Jenny's place. Gosh, she got such rosy cheeks! The heat got to be quite high then :( It was fortunately a smooth ride via the MRT from Yishun to Bugis station. Demi was alert and was self-entertaining herself with a pacifier. We were also lucky to be offered a seat. Else with this long distance, mummy's back was sure to 'break' :P

At the Children's Centre at Raffles Hospital, we got to wait for our turn after those with appointment. Reached there at 2.15pm and out by 4.15pm. Faintz!! Dr Toh mentioned that Demi was having a virus attack. She needed antibiotics to clear the infection or the temperature would not improve. Total 5 types of medication for the cough/phlegm, runny nose and protection of the wind pipe. Bill: S$146.50 FAINTZZ...

Just like Agent Smith said, this is inevitable. Though feeling unwell, Demi could still sleep through the night without stir. She is truely a 'Pig' :P

Sigh... Praying hard for Demi's speedy recovery...
