I was not feeling well on monday nite.. i tot i was going to die.. suddenly everything so dizzy.. keep spinning til i wanna vomit.. i control.. den tot i has high blood or low blood.. thank god that I have normal blood pressure..
Tiff got bitten in sch by a new boy .. there are teeth marks on her hand.. but she is very brave..
and my friend's baby girl got admitted to hospital yesterday after she had a fit.. I really admire her.. young, strong and brave mother.. I will be there for her later.. after reading her story.. my heart ache and I cried.. I can feel her pain.. and I feel that health is more important den anything else..
in life.. it needs this kind of wake up call to tell us that health is more important den anything else!
to Yvonne Ho : Jia you! U can do it!
below I am sharing her enactment of what happened..
Quoted from Yvonne's post
""let me recall the whole scenario... Bel is awake now, the stupit drip machine keep beeping. Cos is running low. Lol! Morning i wake up, bel still sleeping, so i carried sam to bath, den i bath, den come back into the room and feed sam, before that i go check if bel is going to wake up, so i go touch her body, she is in very very deep sleep. Den i just ignore her, i tot she is still not feeling well, wan to sleep more. 9.55am was smsing astro, asking her wad if bel haven wake up, should i wake her , at this time she wake up. Asking for water, i gave.
Sam sleeping, so i ask bel to come out of the room, told her i going to give her some bread to eat. I put her on high chair, give her 1/4 of the bread, i go wash laundry. She finish very quickly, asking for more. I give her another 1/4. I go put laundry to spin dry. Den she finish again. I see her so hungry, i give another half! This time she eat very very slowly.
I called pax and hanging laundry, eating my toast bread. Finished talking to pax, i bring bel down the highchair. 1034am, i place my plate of toast bread on the dining table, walked to the middle of the living room wanted to take bel's cooking toys, bel was standing right beside the table eating my plate. Less den 5s, i turn again wanting to tell her cannot, i see her falling on to the ground. The whole body machiam got freeze, very hard, she just fall like that, not like those u see on tv. (go take a statue or any fingering, use your hand to push it, thats how she fall ) 5min fits! Her eyes roll up, teeth clenching together, all 4 lims jerking up and down in a standard motion. The body arch back. Immediately i call pax again with my hp, she is my last dial number and i trust her in everything she said.
With that split second, i never care bel, i run to the room (phone still ringing) , shouted at nick, told him bel having fits. He got shock(really this time is shock, he jump up from the bed), i run out again(brain thinking wad to bring.) pax pick up, asked her wad to do. (my hand, whole body shiver like mad!) she said put her to the side. After i did. Bel stopped. But breathing very very slowly, till she suddenly cry, i think she got shock. Den less den 2min she stop, lying her motionlessly with her eyes close. Pax still on the phone telling me to pack her normal diaper bag, nick fainted on the floor(he still cannot accept it). She asked me to call 995. i was running around the whole house grabbing anything i see just dump into my bag. The bag cannot zip! Lol. Den i see nick still on the floor, i run to kitchen, use bel's bott to make glucose for him(maybe like that he catch the virus.). 5min later ambulance came. I almost burst out in tears! No one in the house can do anything! They just stare in shock. Still can have the guards to ask me wad happen!
I ignore everyone, no eye contact with anyone. Even nick! He still can ask me this stupit question who is going with bel. I told him, i m going with her, will bring sam with me, u can slowly take your time. Don think u can do anything in this state. Best u stay at home. Don give me any more things to do. 2 small one already very busy already. Banging around in the ambulance. I reach. Bel crying all the way. Dr ask and ask and ask. 11.50am bel fits again at the red room in the a&e. They immediately use a med insert in her butt. Same, 5mins fits. Same thing as the morning. But this time, i carried her in my hands, she just fall back. I quickly lay her on the bed , turn side ways, shout at nurse and dr.
Immediately dr stop asking, admitted! Slowly make our way to the ward. Reached. Settling down and everything. 1pm+ i go toilet, don know y mil go carry bel, again she got fits. Mil got shock to death! Crying in very pale face. Dr trying to help. And told me to calm her down. Immediately, i know she is a burden to me if she stay here. This time, 1-2min fits, not serious.
4 dr came to explain everything. Conclusion :bel is having GE(gastro something), provoke seizure. Possible things that activate fits : her blood test show she got low electrolyte in blood. (just like the white blood cell and red blood cell working together, her blood lack of vit.) After that i very tired already. Everyone in the hospital, dr nurses, keep asking the same question. How she got fits. Her age all the details. I wish i can record in the phone and play it to them if they ask. I am tired of talking. Now she is in monitoring mode.
There is no way they can confirm she wont have any fits unless she is fully recover from this virus. If she have fits again, they will sent her for brain scan. I m very worry for bel every min. I worry she will go into fits again. Cos when she goes into fits, there wont be any sound or signal u can hear. She just drop to the ground. Now she is in the cot, the more i worry. Is cushion everywhere. No sound can hear. The monitoring is detached from her. Left the drip.
Pax, yes, dr did told me about pedialyte. But they said right now still no need to drink yet. But next time, i wont wait. I will just give. No harm giving. Never give, now in this state. Thanks mummies for your concern. Bel is very well den before. Now switching on and off the lights , keep pressing on the red button. Lol. "
SIGH! and she still can joke lor!! this ger.. really brave!
