ME. FEELING TERRIBLE AND VERY SICK.

Feeling unwell and was admitted to hospital for a couple of days and discharged without feeling any better. This is the worst sickness I ever encountered and what makes me very worried (b'cos no concrete diagnoses). VERTIGO is the illness I am suffering. Yes. I am still having it now when I am penning this blog.

Thursday 28/10: Feeling very tired after came back from East Coast Park.

Friday 29/10 : Wake up with a giddy head but still manage to send my hubby to MRT station and my girl to her granny place. Struggle for quite a while but still able to pick my girl from her granny place and send her to school. Struggle badly for even longer time to go MRT station to meet my hubby. My hubby took over the wheel after that.

Saturday 30/10 : Worst day of all. I felt no strength for my limbs. My hubby took me to a nearby clinic and GP diagnosed is a flu virus infected my ear's balancing. GP said it should recover within 3 days.

Sunday 31/10 : Getting slightly better as I could feel my limbs regain some strength. Decided to go hospital and do a detailed checkup. I was put 45 degree to let the blood flow to my brain but does not get any better. I then met neurologist and he suspected is a flu virus affecting my brain balancing and nervous system. I was then admitted since I was unable to take care of myself.

Monday 01/11 : Took blood test for blood count.

Tuesday 02/11 : Vomited for the first time. Suspect is due to the in-digestible mee siam I had for b'fast. I felt worst than the day before. My neurologist suggested I go for MRI scan and in the afternoon, I went for the scan.

Wednesday 03/11 : My neurologist said MRI scan result is normal and he do not know why my condition get worst. He then suggested I go back and rest as it should improve as day passes. Took blood test for cholesterol. I was discharged with condition the same. Thanks to my hubby that I have a nice spicy burger from MCDONALDS as dinner.

Thursday 04/11 : Forced myself to walk more and open eyes wide to look at still objects. I guess I have forced myself so hard that I felt nausea and vomited again. I can look at still objects for a while before I feel giddiness. (if not I will not able to write this blog)

Friday 05/11 : No improvement.

Really hope I can get well before Monday comes.

Faith starts preschool - Day 3

Hope today is a great day for her. After my yesterday prep talk and this morning Daddy E prep talk, we hope she will be more willing to go school herself without any crying and separation anxiety.

I will be picking her up from her grandparents' place shortly. Will update more later.

Faith starts preschool - Day 2 - Afternote

Faith looked very happy when I picked her up from school yesterday. I could hear her telling her Teacher happily that "Mee mee is outside. Mee mee is outside." This ease my thoughts of her disliking school. I then spoke to Teacher B and she said she only cried for a short while. After her milk and short nap, she is fine. I guess she is just tired. Since her afternoon nap has cut from 2-3hrs to 45-30mins. We are trying to re-adjust her sleeping time earlier to make up her lost beauty sleep hours.

Faith starts preschool - Day 2

Yesterday was Faith's first day at preschool. Daddy E took a day off so that we could send Faith to school together. I was delighted that we could do this together. Due to E's work commitment, I nearly have to handle this whole process alone.

When we sent Faith to school, she went into the classroom and turned back and waved us "Good Bye". According to School Principal and her Teacher, she handled her first day very well. No crying at all and participated at all activities given to her. When we went to pick her, she looked very happy and played at the school's playground for quite a while. We are so proud of her. Daddy E treated Faith and I ice cream at Ice Cream Chef.

A smooth sailing First day does not mean an easy Second day.

Today when I picked up Faith from her grandparents' place. She gave a sense of unwillingness to go preschool. She said she just want to go Shichida (her Sat. enrichment class). She pleaded and sobbed during the car journey. I consoled her and told her that we will bring her to shopping after school and Daddy E will treat her ice cream again if she is a good girl. But she just refuse to listen. She continued cry even after E spoke to her over the phone. No choice. I just bring her into her classroom and leave her with her teacher. ... Hearing her loud cry and "I want Mee mee" behind the door... Making me heartache.

Why this happen on Day Two? Is there any better way to handle this? Will this cause her dislike schooling? Will this happen again tomorrow? I hope everything turns out well.

Now, she should be taking her afternoon nap. And I can only wait for her finish school and pick her up.

I am missing him a lot a lot. Having strong urge to pack Faith's and my luggage and take a flight to the other part of the word just to see him.

For the past months, I refuse to count number of days left before seeing him again as I know this will make the wait more unbearable. Today (after almost 2 months), I counted. It is 66 more days. :(

Faith, coconut & bird

Faith was standing on headboard and looking out of the window from eleven storey. (No worries as window grill is in placed).

Faith: Bird eat what?
Me: Birds eat fruits, nuts and worms.
Faith: Bird eats coconut?
Me: Yea. Some birds do eat coconut.

Few days later... Same place.. Same timing.

Faith: Faith cuts coconut. Bird eats coconut... with spoon.

I was impressed and surprised by what she said. Not knowing how to response and just repeated what she has said. Haha..

Then, a few days later.... Yea.. Same place and same timing..

Faith: Faith cuts coconut. Bird eats coconut with fork.
Me: Oh.. Bird don't use spoon today?
Faith: No... Bird uses fork.
Me: *Laugh out loud*

Above is from a kiddo of 2 years 2.5 months old.

"Faith go where?"

Eversince, we moved to my parents' place (temporary stay till our new place is renovated), Faith asked the same question almost every morning. That is, "Faith go where?".

A snippet of our today conversation that caught me in surprise.

Faith: Faith go where?
Me: Where is Faith going? (repeated her question as to teach her correct way of asking question)
Me: Faith is going to Shichida class today.
Faith: Where is Shichida?
Me: Shichida is at Toa Payoh.
Faith: Shichida is at Toa Payoh. Faith is going to Shichida.

This is the first time Faith said "Shichida". She now knows what she is expecting in school and more participative in class activities.
