Gabe is Sick

My precious boy is sick..again..about a month back he got sick for the first time with cough n flu. Which resulted in him losing weight. Now, he's caught the cough and has a fever of 38.4

We brought him to the hospital and 3 doctors came to see him. First, they called a young doc, freshie i think. Then he too Gabe's oxy and didn;t say much, but saw it was 75%. He called for someone on the phone. Told us another doc coming. I did mention to him that the low oxy is "normal" for Gabe due to his heart problems.

Anyway, another doc came, this one older..got abit white hair i saw. Again, did all the basics eg listen to heartbeat, check ears, check throat. Hmm...keep discussing among themselves. Then he makes a call...soon another doc arrives. Ahhhh..this one confirm, very experienced n senior. The uniform also different, all blue color. So after all the checking and discussions, they asked us to call Dr H tomorrow morning to check if Gabe needs to go to see him as they are worried it could be an infection. Gave us some meds.

Poor Gabe...coughing like crazy and worst part is the phlegm is stuck coz he doesn't know how to spit it out. It irritates the crap outta him coz he even vomits his milk out when coughing. His fever went down to 37.5 the next morning, so thank God for that.

Not sure where he caught the virus from coz he didn't go to daycare for the past 1 week plus...maybe it's the weather, too hot.

Get well soon Gabe...Mummy needs you to work your appetite back up...

Fever patch..but still can play and shout...
