THE ONE WITH THE HOSPITAL

.


Last week Friday, many were surprised when I posted a photo of Oman lying on the hospital bed with this caption;

"Alhamdulillah. After operation this morning. He's fine now. Oman strong boy. Saaaaaaaaayang Oman".

I started to receive a lot of comments from Facebook, Instagram and personal messages asking what happened to Oman, and wishing him for a speedy recovery. On behalf of my family, I would like to express our deepest thanks for all the concerns, prayers and thoughtful  wishes.

Frankly, this still a big surprise to myself and my husband. Especially when I was the first person who saw an abnormal swollen area behind Oman's left knee... and  i was really hoping it's just due to mosquito bite. Hep!! Biasa tau nyamuk ni! *sambil cekak penggang.

Me: What do you think?

Husband: Hmmmm...

Me: I know you gonna say it looks like mosquito bite, kan?

Husband: No its not......  It looks like a misplace bone.

Me: What!! that's so scary okeh!! We are so going to the clinic.. now! 

We brought Oman to see a doctor. 

The moment she saw it, performed some physical checking, she was then immediately recommending for Oman to be referred to an Orthopedic specialist.

(It sounds like Oman has no issue seeing doctor, right? Wrong! Kene bribe bagai okeh. I made story that after checking, the doc  would give him some sweets. :P Eh rupanya betul, she gave him 2 packets of ribena-gummy bear. Phew!) 

Just to share about Oman's condition, he's perfectly fine except that swollen thing behind his knee. He walked , run, jumped, sat like normal. He didn't feel any pain. He also made joke about his leg.

One day he woke up, ran to me and.. "momma, i found another "bengkak" (swollen).. so big and hard ", and he showed his KNEE to me. T_T, and he ran away, laughing... haih la Oman. ;P

The next day, husband and I took leave to bring Oman to see Dr Abang Askandar Kamell Bassrull. He's one of a known Orthopedic surgeon from KPJ Shah Alam Specialist Hospital. With a small battling in the beginning to get Encik Oman cooperation, Dr Askandar diagnosed Oman to have Ganglion Cyst, where this type of cyst commonly occurs between bone joints. 

According to Dr, this cyst would be getting bigger and bigger in time. Since it's grown just right in between Oman's knee bones, it will cause discomfort to  his movement sooner or later. To remove this cyst was a better choice as after the operation, Dr would perform analysis to the tissues to confirm whether its cancerous or not......... paused..... (its the scariest part of all).

15 March 2013, was the day Oman undergone the operation. 

 Registration

We reached the hospital at 7.30am. Oman was very quite.... I think he knew whats gonna happen. We did pep-talking to him few times about today, and he didn't like it. We did not know what to expect...

We were assigned a ward room. We used half an hour waiting time to make Oman felt comfortable and easy. Hmmm.. not that easy..

 Counseling Session with Doctor Momma. 

Together in this session was Doctor Dadda and Doctor G.Papa.

When the real doctor came, Doc Askandar, elok pulak Oman bagi kerjasama .. ????.. 

Hihi. I think Oman loved the way Dr Askandar called his name and used drawing to approach him.  He told Oman to let him see the swollen area again and he would draw a straight line there.  (Actually doc would like to draw the line where he would perform the cut). 

"Only 1 parent  is allowed to accompany the child in the operation theater until General anesthesia (GA) is performed", explained the doc. 

I wanted to do it. 

My husband allowed me so. 

He and my father in law sent us down up to the waiting area. 

Dadda kissed Oman's forehead... he didn't kiss me ... :P... but giving me a big pat on my shoulder. 

In the OT hall, when only himself and his mom surrounded by strangers who worn all blue (i had to wear their uniform and shoes too), Oman's becoming more uncomfortable. Like he knew it, he looked at my eyes, 

Oman: I don't want this..

Momma: Ok Oman. I don't want this too. Let's go back and eat KFC..

Dush! Dush! only crazy momma would say like that. 

I held his hand firmly. Told him not to worry cause I'd be there with him all the time.  I'd not release his hand. 

Note: Patience or patience's guardian need to be aware of the repetition of questions and answers, agreement, signatures .. with different kind of doctors before you were pushed to the OT room.

Oman nearly jumped out of the bed when they started pushing it. His body was shaking. Pity my boy. He pulled my body very closed to him. 

In the OT room, not only Oman, I myself also felt nervous with the room condition.. The apparatus, the lights..

(even I had experienced appendix surgery in the same room 5 years ago). 

It's time for the GA Procedures. 

Oman started to cry when the anesthetist asked him to lie down. The nurses tried to pujuk him to play with the balloon connected to the GA Machine. 

The more he cried! 

Oman hates balloon.... 
tett!!

Failed..

After a while, Oman still didn't wanna lay down.. one of the nurse whispered this  to me;

"Puan, usually for the case like this, we have to 'force' the kid by holding his head, hand, body and leg. We cannot wait", softly.

"I think so. He hates balloon.... We didn't have anything else interested to him. I agree."

Calmly. I told Oman. "Oman tidur k. Momma jaga Oman"..

After that..I nodded to the nurses.. 

That moment still fresh in my mind.

 Oman's crying helplessly. momma!..momma!... out loud. I could see his tears... and slowly.. he closed his eyes...

My time was up. I couldn't stay there. I was then sent by the OT staff to the waiting area to join my Husband and father in law. Before i left the OT room, the doctor told me to just be calm. Insya Allah everything will be alright.

(eh tak.. tak.. mana ada I nangis) :)

Dengan machonya, I opened the waiting room's door with a big smile. 

Husband: Eh Done already? So soon!

Me: No lah. Oman is  now in a deep sleep. The operation just started. and to be ended in 1 hour time.

Husband: How was Oman just now?

Me: ...................

Husband: Did he cried?

Me:...................

Husband: Are you crying?

Me: (sambil tekup muka)..

(Yes.. Yes.. I cried) Sebak wo sebenarnya. Tapi kejap je. :)

After 45 minutes, we came back to the waiting area. The nurse approached us. She told that the operation had finished. (Tuhan je tau betapa tak sabarnya nak tunggu Oman)

Husband: I go first ok?

Me: OK sure. Jangan lama-lama k.. :P (Padahal tadi punyalah i yang lama kat dalam tu)

8 minutes is like 8 hours ok!!!..

Husband came out and told me that Oman still unconscious, his eyes still closed but he's crying. When i heard that, i ran inside to get him. 

Yes he's crying.. he sounded so sad.  I call his name few times and he opened his eyes. I did not know where came all the energy, but this boy was so strong. He saw me and he immediately sat wanting me to hug him. The nurse advised him to lay back on the bed. They afraid Oman would fall or vomit.

It took a while for me to calm him. But he still didn't want to lay on the bed. Akibatnya...

:)

Baru Oman nak baring.

Syukur the cyst had been removed. I think we've made the right decision. 

Doc told us he's shocked to find out that  that the size of the cyst was triple to what was visible from the outside. Its like 3 pcs of black grapes and they were grown deep between the two bones. Insya Allah, all the cyst and roots were removed and not to recur again. Amin.

Doc also informed us that Oman might feel a little bit more painful because the cut is quite long and deep.Nevertheless, kids healing process usually faster than adult. 

 

Looking at the sample tissue of the cyst before it was sent to the lab for further analysis.

Closer view. 1/3 of the actual size.

Its round in shape with liquid inside. 

Doc had taken the jelly out.

 

Watching Disney Cartoon while having his first 'meal' after more than 12 hours fasting.

One thing that makes me amazed, Oman has skipped the painkiller for few days (masya Allah dia ni susah sangat nak makan ubat), but Subhanallah he can handle the pain. No shows of painful expression at all until today. 

I have been on leave since Monday to take care of my son. Bibikless.

(Bibik balik kampung sambut cucu sulung dia. She's a grandmother now. Tahniah bibik! :)). Alhamdulillah, Oman can now stand and walk pace by pace. I feel half relief..

We gonna meet Dr Askandar again today, for him to open the plaster of Oman's leg, and to let us know the result of the tissues' analysis. I pray day and night It will be alright, nothing more serious than just a normal cyst. Ya Tuhan.. kabulkanlah.. 

Please pray for Oman too, dearies..

To Hospital again........ Hmmmm... not so favorable to Oman. Will there be any drama  between him and the doctor? We hope not!  :)

Til then.

A HEAVENLY SICK

.

( The Prophet ﷺ (peace be upon him) had taught to the ummah (Muslim community) for times of difficulty: “If a servant of Allah is afflicted with a misfortune and says: ‘Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji’un, Allahumma ajirni fi musibati wa akhlif li khairan minha‘ (Verily we belong to Allah and truly to Him shall we return. O Allah! Protect me in this calamity that has befallen me and replace it with something better). Insya Allah.  (I am referring to this page)

Last Sunday evening, my stomach chose to be upset. Started with a few times of toilet visit, then it prolonged with on and off pain. That kind of pain seemed familiar.

Period pain.

Well, since i got married 5 years ago, the frequency of me having period pain has reduced tremendously (replaced with migraine). So i was previously in agreement with the statement that "Bila dah kahwin mesti dah tak sunggugut", until it attacked me again this time.

The pain was almost similar to labor contraction. (OK, that was  so exaggerating).  But i swear whenever it attacked, I had to laid on bed, cuddled myself, close my eyes tightly, and squeezed my tummy until it paused.

Even so, I still came to the office the next day.. Usually the pain won't take long but this time it's getting harder throughout the day until night. I took 4 tablets of pain killer but nothing improved.
 
Anyway, on the 'hikmah' side, I have all my right to take a leave from work and rest at home. Alhamdulillah. That was what I did on Tuesday.

Obviously the most happiest person in the house was Encik Oman but I think he realized that I was not very energetic that day.

Oman: Momma, kenapa mama buat macam tu?

Momma: Heh? Buat cemana?

Oman: Buat jalan pelan-pelan, pastu momma buat muka kedut-kedut

Momma: (LOL). Momma sakit perut la sayang. Nanti Oman teman Momma gi clinic k.

OMan: OooOOO.. Sian Momma. Nanti doctor bagi ubat, Momma janganla buat jalan pelan-pelan dengan buat muka kedut lagi tau.

Momma: Yelah.... :)

Ade ke patut Oman kata I 'buat' ? Hahaha.


Here another thing that tickling me about this young man;
After Oman knows her momma's not working that day, immediately he declared 'unfriend' with Bibik. Boleh tak?Haha! :)

I really enjoyed the day i had with him.

I bathed him, treated him with a special massage, fried nugget for his breakfast.
We did some writings and drawings, we watched TV.
We messed the family hall with all his toys, (but we ensured we tidied it back before Dadda came back from work. =P)

The Massage Session

Penggeli Oman ni. Usik sikit, berguling-guling dia. :)

Kuku pun dah bersih. Good boy! :)

Pelanggan urutku yang pemalu. =P

After bath

He can cooperate to anything except to comb his hair. Haih!! :)

At Clinic

Tutti Frutti

 His all time favourite, Vanilla! :)

That day, Everything seemed alright... including my stomach pain. 

Heaven!
Alhamdulillah :)

WHEN ONLY NUUR not ILL

.

I still remember last year, 12 April 2010, it way my 1st meeting day in Guilin, China when i received a shocking news that Oman was admitted to DSH due to a very high fever. I felt so hopeless that i needed to wait the next day first flight, transited in Beijing for few hours before i finally reached my son. But the moment i saw him in front of my eyes, i gained back all my strength and dedicated my full 5 days and nights with him in the hospital.

Somewhere in the middle of February this year, Oman was again attacked by viral high fever. I was so thankful that i was not going anywhere this time. At 12.30 am, his temperature rose up to 40 degrees Celsius so we immediately brought him to SMC, the nearest hospital from our house. As expected, he was needed to be put under close monitoring in the ward.

Oman had enough of cries on the first day when every 4 hours he needed to be nebulized. He was so angry and disappointed everytime he had to wear that mask and breath in the gas. Without seeking much help from the nurses, i managed to assist (read: force) him to undergo every session without failed. Thank God after the second day, Oman was dealing very good with it.

Day 1 - Momma pegangkan.
Day 2- Pegang sama-sama.
Day 3 - Momma dah xyah pegangkan.

Oman blood test showed that he was free from H1N1 and dengue. I felt so relief that it was only viral infections. However, i was still needed to ensure that Oman took every of his medicines which was Homaigod very challenging since this time doc decided not to gave the medicines through jab. Bersilat hokeh!

The third day at hospital, Oman showed very significant improvement.

We spent 4 days and 4 nights in SMC before Dr Hoe said YES for Oman to go back home. He was totally cheerful after discharged. Macam baru nampak dunia. hihi.

2 days after, Oman had suddenly increased his bobok (in Oman case, poo poo) frequency like once every 2 to 3 hours. Its watery and yellowish. As the result, Oman became less active, more quite, and pale. Until the next day when he and his dadda fetched me at a workshop in Sunway (Puan Nabira buat hal lagi), Oman was really sick. Beside having quite high temperature, he was very weak. He fell asleep while standing in the car. That was never happened before.

That night, i made a call to Eirsa's mom, Ahsuez, asking for some info about Rotavirus. Almost all the symptoms experienced by Eirsa were similar to Oman. Being positive, I was hoping that Oman would get better that night and back to normal the next morning (I was actually xmo dia kene admit lagi)

At 12.30 am (again), Oman reached the point where he couldn't take it any longer. He was all shivering. He couldn't sleep. His body was so hot and he vomited. We quickly packed his necessities and brought him to SMC.

Readmitted

While waiting for his room to be ready, Oman was tepid sponged by the nurse in the emergency room as his temperature was too high. The doc also took the sample of his poop for further examination.

"The result shows +ve in rota test". Yeap! he is confirmed infected by that virus. Rotavirus is the most common cause of severe diarrhea among infants and young children which could be transmitted via food, drinks and touch. As it could be contagious, me and my hubby had to wash our hands properly after handling Oman especially after we changed his diaper and washed his poop.

It took few days for this virus to fully flush out from the body. During that period, Oman was doing good except for his frequent vowel movement and losing his appetite. He lost 2 kg within a week. I lost 1.2 kg (nak jugak! :p).

The room sweet room.

His favorite 'toys' during the stay. Ape ape je lah Oman.

Xlupa memanjat doa ke hadrat Ilahi.

Oman was discharged after 3 days admission. Just a day before our planned trip to Penang. Phew! That trip was a treat from my hubby to my family in Sitiawan for us to have a great time together and also Oman's post birthday celebration. (I'm gonna create an entry for this).

Well, it didn't stop there, my dear. While we're having fun in Penang, I noticed that Oman's body were fulled of red thick rashes. Something like Measles. Owh How pity Omas was as one by one he was attacked by viruses. We're lucky that in Penang, ayaq nyoq (air kelapa) was easy to be found and that's the only remedy for it besides calamine lotion. The rashes were fully disappeared after 3 days. Syukur.

On our last day in Penang, hubby did mention to me that he felt a lil bit uncomfortable with his body. His joins were in pain and he got a slight headache. I made a joke that he might have been over eating and that's the price he had to pay.

Ala.. rasa bersalahnya...
That was because when we got back to Shah Alam, his condition became worse.

That whole night he kept visiting the washroom without failed. He started with diarrhea and then vomiting. At about 1.30 am in the morning, I noticed Armi's temperature rose up and his was shivering a lot. Being him, the person who is anti-clinic, when he requested himself to be sent to the hospital, i knew that he must be feeling very very sick.

Oman was just about to recover and Dadda took a turn. We were reluctant to bring him to the hospital at the same time to leave him at home with the new maid. What if he woke up and found that we were not at home? All i could do was just to pray that Oman would be fine sleeping until we got back home.

He was too dehydrated. Sampai SMC terus kene drip.

Doc told me that my hubby had to be admitted. I wasn't ready but the previous 2 admissions of Oman made me become a stronger woman. I waited there until my hubby had been assigned with a room.

I knew he was worried of Oman too. He told me to go back home that he would be fine with the close monitoring of the nurses and doctor. Again all i could do was just to pray that hubby could take care of himself without me assisting him. Sigh.

To drove back home alone at 3.00 am in the morning was really an eerily experience for me. My heart was beating very fast along the way. Everytime there were other vehicles passed by, i prayed hard that my car would not be hijacked by them. Seterusnya diri ini x diapa-apakan. Nauzubillah. (Serious takut!!! Even bukan semua yang keluar pukul 3 pagi tu jahat :p)

Alhamdulillah, i managed to reach home safely. What a huge relief.

As i open the door, i could hear clearly that Oman was crying and looking for me. Ala kesiannya. I quickly ran to get him and put him back to sleep. Then i called my hubby to inform him that i was already at home.

Armi's condition after that was much better. When i reached him the next morning, he could already bring himself to the toilet. (Kalau x kene tolak dengan wheelchair). What a good news when his blood test showed nothing serious. Armi was just having viral infection.

All I would say, February was a tough month for us this year. We've been given few tests one after another. But we didn't feel ungrateful. We lived with it. We've became much closer to each other and I have becoming a good 'nurse' by the way. hihi.

Thank you very very much to our parents and families who put all the efforts to support us all this time. Thank you to those who prayed for us. We love you.

To date, Oman has gained back his weight. Main kuat makan. Hihi. Armi pun dah sihat sejahtera. Makin banyak extra job. Alhamdulillah di atas rezekiNya.

May all of us stay stronger and healthier. Amin.

FROM CAIRO with LOVE (Cycle 2)

Salam peeps.

Ya habibi Ya Maulana :)

Well, i dun have much update after two days being here in Cairo.
I haven't got the chance to walk or jog along Nile river yet, but i heard from other delegates that it is not advisable to do that. They said it's very dusty outside.

Nile river. View from the meeting room

Nile River. View from my breakfast table.

Last night, Encik Mukhtar and i went to the nearest shopping complex (yahoo!!!) to check what we could have for dinner. And yes people, we have the most delicious International food, KFC!! Kikikiki.

Encik Mukhtar was really looking for Nasi (dia x boleh x makan nasi), while i was hoping the miracle to meet with any Chinese or Oriental restaurant here. Harapan tinggal harapan, yang ada cuma kebab, pizza, KFC, McD. :) Just to share with you, i'm not a fan of Arabian food. Kalau x, memang dah enjoy dah makan. hihi.

i x shop apa-apa yer.. serius nak suh En. Mukhtar balik hotel dulu sebab segan nak masuk keluar kedai mcm orang gila nanti. But Encik Mukhtar not allowed me to walk alone. Tapi dia x offerla pulak nak teman. maka terpaksala pendamkan hasrat murni i tu. "Toksahlah Nuurill, nanti awak hilang, susah saya nak jawab.".. Encik Mukhtar ni baik, macam ayah-ayah je. Xpe, i'm gonna get Maghda or Rania or Ola from Telecom Egypt to accompany me nanti. :)

It's true that you could feel outside there that wind's flowing with kind of tiny pieces of dust or sand maybe. After a while, i started to rub my eyes. Sakit! Hmm.. i wonder, even it 's very dusty outside there, but the Egyptian ladies' skin still superbly flawless.
Xpe, cuba tengok after a week here, kulit i jadi flawless and cerah macam diorang ke x. :D

My target today is to visit the gym. They said it's cool. X rugi achik bawak sport shoes. Yey! The gym is located at 23rd floor and the view of Nile rive is much much better up there. I'm gonna bring along my camera, fore sure. OK correction, not my camera, but my father in law's. When he heard that i'd be going to Egypt (terbayang piramid), terus dia offered camera dia sebab my camera dah ala-ala kurun zaman batu dulu. Hihi.

Meeting Day 1. Gadis bunga.

Meeting Day 2. Gadis biru

p/s: nampak sangat i sangapkan? keje amik gamba sendiri. Haih.

Yesterday, hubby told me that Oman's having 38.5 temperature. :( pity baby. I wish i was there with him. Hubby cakap he might be missing his momma. I tried to have a video call with him last night but not sure what's the reason, i couldn't get through it. Nak video chat pun x dapat because rumah my pil ade problem sket with internet connection. Urhhhh.. dugaan. Xpela, voice call pun jadila kan. Hubby told me that Oman macam tercari-cari my face dekat that phone. Owh sedih!!

What i did, i mmsed his dadda my pic's smiling (takkan nak tunjuk gambar i nangis kat Oman kan) and i received this;
"Dah tunjuk. Dia pegang gamba by sambil "K^rhGe9EUel=uXmFr" dalam process nak tido".

I know Oman would love to tell me something. I miss u too, dear. Hang on there, ok. You're strong Little man, kan?

Moga Oman cepat baik. Amin.

Alhamdulillah, while i'm writing this, i received an update from my hubby. He said Oman is getting better now. My mil's maid and sil are taking care of him. Oman dah buddy buddy dengan Cik Is (how he called my mil's maid). Siap boleh duduk atas riba lagi. Oh!!! i feel so relief. Senang hati momma, darling.

Okay. Til i write again, i wish everyone's happy and have a great day. Let's appreciate the loves among us because when you're apart and far away, you have to bear with the biggest pain in the world, which is, MISSING THEM SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Little Man.

Little and Big Man.

OH MY BOY!

13.04.10.
Immediately after i touched down at KLIA, i was sent by Airport Limo to DSH. When i reached there, the was a man smiling at me; "Kak, ni hospital yer, bukan hotel"... Arghh.. It must be my huge luggage. He thought that i was at false destination. :p

Oman's discharged from DSH on 16 April 2010, after 5 days being treated closely due to temperature fluctuation and viral infection. He was boring to the max on the last day, he didn't want to stay in the ward at all, he pulled my hand to visit the whole hospital, he climbed on me and played 'kuda-kuda', he ran and shouted at me if i wasn't chase him. At the same time, I was suffering with diarrhea and he didn't want anybody else nursing him especially the medical officers. Want it or not, every toilet time he was in there with me. Elok pulak dia diam dalam tu main botol syampu dia!!!! Cobaan betul!! ;P Though i was totally exhausted, dehydrated, but looking at how he appealed in cute face and move, i melted. Biarlah dia active macam tu dari dia terlantar sakit kan?. Huhu.

There's one thing surprised me as Oman gained 0.4 grams even he's sick. Hehe. His weight is now 9.6kg at 79cm tall. Berkhasiat sungguh bubur hospital. :)

My families from perak visited us on last weekend. Dengan harapan they could lend their hands nursing Oman while giving me and my hubby some quality time to rest. Harapan tinggal harapan. :p

I must be visible to Oman's eyes 24 hours. After 5 minutes, his cute mouth would call up 'momma'. If no answer, his tears dropped. He would ran to the kitchen, toilet, store looked up for me. Tersedu sedan. If i silently ran to the toilet, he could sensed it, mulala macam nak pecah pintu toilet tu he hammered it with his cute hands. Immediately when he got me hugging kissing him, terus lebar mcm padang bola smiles dia tau!

My mom told me he might be afraid that i would leave him again. (I was in China a day before he admitted, remember?). Huhu. My mom then siap sempat buat lawak lagi;
"Agaknya, kamu bawak dia bobok sekali masa kat spital hari tu (bobok tu bahasa kami replacing ber_k), dia dah terkenan dengan bau kamu. Tu yang nak melekat je tu" Ahaks!. Sabo jekla.

On Monday, he is no more having fever, a little flu but recovering. I called up Mak Yah to check on Oman. I've been told that Oman kept crying. Yesterday still the same but improved. Today's morning, my hubby told me that Oman's still crying when he passed him to Mak Yah. Ala kesiannya. Memang Cobaan!!!!

Now, i can't wait to fetch him from Mak Yah's house. Nak pelok ciom dia. Cepatlah 5.30 pm. Ngeeeeeeeeee :D

p/s: Dear hubby, i just want to express, how i am so proud of you, you gently handled the first 2 days you and Oman in the hospital. Alone. Want a 'PLEASANT present' ?. Ehem ehem. :P

On the final day at DSH. He was not on the bed. It was on the floor. We were having picnic at kaki lima. Budak kicik ini xmo masuk bilik! :P

HUGE TESTS

Alhamdulillah. My Irma is now officially a wife to Afie. The events were totally lovely and she was undoubtedly gorgeous on that days. I rest first the beautiful stories of the events.

It all happened when we least expected that Irma's fall sick a day before her solemnization. Blood test confirmed that she's having dengue fever. All of us were so worried about her. Though her fever below dangerous stage, she's so weak and dehydrated.

She became strong when she thought of making her days lively. She fought her pain and hid it behind her sweetest smiles. Many didn't know that after her solemnization on Friday morning, she was admitted few hours in emergency room, being dripped due to dehydration. On Friday night, it was her malam berinai. She gave the best of her during karaoke & photoshoot session, until after all guest went back, she was then totally exhausted and ill. The next morning, she still attended the rehearsal and she hang in there until the actual reception succeed. I 'm so proud of you, sister. You made it!!

On the rehearsal day, one by one of the family member fall sick after Irma. My father in law, brother in law and Oman. They got temperatures. But the event at night must go on so they pretended like they were okay. Oman on the other hand, cranky all the way. He didn't want anybody else including his grandparents, aunts and uncles, except me. He would cried out loud when someone's trying to take him from me. So that day, during the event, i was holding him most of the time. They said, "he knows her momma gonna leave him tomorrow morning". I thought so.

Early Sunday morning, It's so sad to leave him when he's not feeling well. :( But i felt relief when my momma texted me that he's fever had went down yesterday. I felt much happier when i knew that he's being so charmed towards his aunt and uncles. The happiest news was when my hubby reported to me that it's so easy to put him to sleep that night. I felt heaven.

Until this morning, when i received a call from my hubby that Oman's fever risen very high, it turned to be a blackout to me. More to note that the whole family of my in laws are down with fever. To add the sadness, Afie, Irma's husband is confirmed having dengue similar as her wife while the rest are being put under close monitoring.

Back to Oman, as 2 of his family members are now positive dengue, my hubby decided to bring Oman to DSH for further checking. I was so sad and guilty when he told me that he's going to handle things there alone since everyone is flatten with sickness. There were my family to help but hubby told me that they're on their way back to Perak sending my brother & sister back to the unis. Surprisingly, my family members are down with fever too. Oh my!!!

I kept telling myself to stay calm facing these huge tests, to be very strong, not to cry, but when i knew that Oman's directly being admitted as he's suspected to have Dengue/ H1N1, i was burst into tears like the heavy rains. Appeared in front my eyes, very sad face of my son searching for his momma. I imagined how hard my hubby handled the situation. I could hear his voice calling me, i could hear he's crying when the doctor took his blood for test. I feel so so bad to both of them. :(

I 'm going back to be with them tomorrow morning!! Me and my hubby are the only health bodies alive. Oman needs a lot of attention especially from me. I know he's refusing any meals that he wants his momma to bf him for comfortableness. Syukur, I am so grateful that my superiors understand with my hard situation. They allow me to discontinue my involvement at this meeting in Guilin. Yes, i'm gonna miss the opportunity to learn new good things bout my work. But what's more important is to be with my my hubby and son during this hard time, right? (TQ to Mel, K.Marina & Sal too much! They helped me a lot with arranging the ticket. Love ya all!! Muahs!!)

I feel very so sorry for my families both sides. Semoga everything's not getting worse. Cepat-cepat baik-baik semua mcm selalu.

Kidd and Oman, i can't wait to see both of you tomorrow. Ya Tuhan, lindungilah perjalananku, Aamin.

ps: Latest update about my Little Man, he is now admitted at DSH (dadda stays with him), still on high fever, having flu and cough, he's tested negative dengue (Alhamdulillah!!), he doesn't wanna eat and drink (if this continue, he's gonna be dripped tonight), H1N1 test result will be heard tomorrow. I pray hard it will be negative too!!! Aamin.

Pic mmsed by Dadda.
Dun be afraid, darling. Momma is gonna there be with you... soon.

SAYA SAKIT..

Yesterday evening, before my hubby went out to meet his friends in Sunway Pyramid....

Kidd: Bi, are you sure you dun want to follow me?
Bi: Xper kot Kidd. Oman looks very sleepy. Nanti dia x comfortable lama-lama while you guys having conversation. (Kalau dulu, mesti nak ikut punya. Dah jadi momma ni, kenela consider Encik Little Man ok ke x dulu. :))
Kidd: Bi nak pesan ape-ape?
Bi: Nak!! Rasa cam nak makan donut. Kidd belikan Bi 'Jakel' kay.
Kidd: ???? Jakel ???? Nak makan Donut ke kain?
Bi: Eh! Jco!! silap!!!

NOT MEASLES/FLOWER GIRL

The rashes on Oman's skin has gone. He's now back to his normal routine. No more cranky like previous few days. He's having a very good sleep yesterday's night. Alhamdulillah. I feel so relief.

When we met Dr. Mardziah on Wednesday, she told us that those rashes were not measles. It's a kind of viral infection that could occurred to any babies/tod due to many reasons. Most certainly, Oman's experiencing it due to high fever and sore throat he had few days ago. Calamine lotion was greatly effective that there is no more show up of any reddish dots on Oman's body overall.

Oman is now weighing 9.2 kg, 79cm tall at 13th month plus. His weight has no change like 1 and 1/2 month ago. Slim betul anak bujang i nih!. Before this, he had gained bits but he might loss some grams during previous days sickness. As long as his appetite is now returned big and he's keeping active, i shouldn't be worry too much. :)

Owh my... i would like to share about Oman latest interest which always make me almost faint. Nowadays, he loves to pick any tiny little thing he meet and quickly insert it to his mouth. Sabo jekla tau. The latest, he found my brooch on the floor (my fault!!) and i think he thought it was a kind of sweet or what, he simply swallowed it. When he saw us sikit lagi nak kene heart attack running after him, he threw it out right away. Fuhhh!!!

So now, all of us must put all eyes to him anytime, everywhere. We must be extravaganza careful, keep away, move high, all possible creatures that he could 'makan'. Including his ABC puzzle mats. Itupun dia suka nak masuk mulut tau. Oman..Oman. As for me, i'll be more focus, fight hard for my clumsiness mainly for my son's safety. Good for me also kan. Asyik clumsy pot pot je. Huhu...

A little update on Irma's wedding preparation. Since Oman's condition's convincingly positive, we went to One Utama meeting my mil on Wednesday night for the little flower girl's dress hunting. The 4 flower 'ladies' have earlier been provided with laces and lining by Irma (Serious Laces murah bangat dekat Bandung ok!!), it's only the little flower girl outfit left, and we had limited time remained.

Firstly we went to 'Flower Girl' outlet. There were many designs and colors, the prices were also very reasonable, but we couldn't get the one we looking for. So we moved next to Lovely Lace. Still we couldn't get a dress that met the eyes but we fall in love with the fg hair accessories (veil with tiara). we let it hold there until we found a perfect dress.

Next, we moved to Parkson. At girl's section, there was Room 8 Couture. Oh My!! The dresses sangat gojas-gojas. It's an Australian brand with the price ranges from RM49 to RM299. The detailed the dress, the higher the price. We were getting tired, kaki pun dah lengoh, so mama decided us to finalize the dress there. Kalau ikutkan banyak je tempat lain boleh pergi survey else than OU, it's just the matter of time.

After a while, I proposed a dress to mama, she smiled and agreed. So did my hubby, he said if he was to choose, he would pick the same. I MMSed the picas to Irma for her comment as the ultimate approval was to received from the bride herself, Irma. :)

A sweet dress for the little flower girl. Size (5-6 years). Moga-moga it fits Aleesya.

The lace flower paste details won out heart

Yey!! The bride's happy with it and gave her YES!! :)

Lat but not least, we ran back to Lovely Lace to grab the hair accessories and socks.

Nampaknya, pencarian for page boys and flower girls outfits sudah pun tamat. They must be looking ultimately charming and beautiful on that day. Aamin :)

Dah bosan la tu.. hihihi

BEING AWAY..

I am currently residing in Legend Resort Cherating.. cant't stop thinking bout him.

Oman demam panas since Friday. It was 39 degrees. I took urgent leave immediately. Tukar job jadi doctor pulak. I was hoping that he would recover very fast.

Yesterday's morning, when we woke up in the morning, muka oman mcm bengkak-bengkak tapi it was not that obvious. Oman meragam-ragam, buat itu ini semua x kena. Kalau makan, he would only welcome liquid into his mouth, yang solid bagai, semua sekian terima kasih. Siap buat-buat muka lagi. Punyala momma buat special presentation carrot bentuk stars tau letak atas porridge. Dia buat dek je.

Towards noon, Oman's fever dah mild but we noticed the appearance of red dots on his body, face, and back of his ears. Oman mmg x selesa with that condition. He kept rubbing his skin. He would cry whenever i dissapearred from his eyes. Menyusu jangan cakaplah, memang he totally refused bottle. The pattern of that redish pinkish rashes nampak macam 'campak' so we went to visit a doctor at TTDI. Owh how i wished yesterday was not sunday so that i could bring him se his paed. His 2nd doctor's clinic pun close on Sunday. huhu

We have been told that it's still early to tell if Oman kene measles or not. Sometimes, high fever and medication reaction could cause rashes too. Doc gave Oman calamine cream. He advised me to keep monitor Oman for few days.

Last night, Oman sangat resah. I attended him all night long til this morning. When he fall asleep, i slowly packed for my working trip where i am now. Oman woke up every half and hour and cried. It's killing me deeply. How i feel so damn guity. At his condition that he needs her mother to be with him so much, i have to leave.. He kept hugging me tight until he slept with his head on my shoulder.

Maafkan momma, Oman..

When i left him this morning, his rashes dah makin menebal. Memang sahlah measles. Pity my baby. Owh! I really can't wait for tomorrow. Nak balik. Mujurlah this trip 2 days 1 night only. Oman bertahan yer sayang...

Me and hubby dah plan nak cuti on Wed, nak bawa Oman jumpa Doc Maziah. Paling penting, can be with him 24 hours!!!! Pesakit kami paling special :)

A testimonial to the most special person,
How on earth i'm so lucky that i have somene who is always being so supportive to me. He deals positively and sportingly with my mobility. He is my hubby, who also my best buddy on earth, my everything. Everytime i told him about my next trip, dia x pernah merungut. Cuma dia join club 'Suami2 selalu ditinggal isteri' je dengan kawan-kawan yang senasib dengan dia. Ade tau club tu. ;p

Several times, i asked him about his true feeling towards my working obligation, He keeps telling me to focus and praying that everything will be fine and smooth. Thank you so much, Kidd for having such the greatest heart.
