Drama weekend

It's been a challenging weekend so far.

Saturday morning we discovered that Nadya had fever. Gave her medicine from our stockpile at home.

By 4:00pm, Alyssa started vomitting. In fact, she vomitted 5 times in 2 hours and ended up looking rather pale. She was also lethargic and subdued. We rushed her to KK's AnE. She was immediately given anti-vomitting medicine and put on glucose electrolytes for the next hour. 15ml of the glucose solution once every 15mins. She was much better after the medication and was back to her cheery, cheeky and active self.

The doc had warned that with such a stomach virus, she might develop a fever and also diarrhoea. True enough, the diarrhoea came at night. Poor girl. She was in so much discomfort that she was crying and whimpering most of the time. Sigh.....

By the time Sunday morning came, she was cranky. Her appetite seems almost non-existent now...and it is very worrying. :( Her weight has remained stagnant for the last 3 months...no more chubby cheeks, no more thunder thighs. :(

As for Nadya, her fever showed no signs of abating and peaked at 39.5C on Sunday afternoon. It has remained under 39 ever since. Which is a good thing. The bad thing is that now she is showing signs of having cough and a phlegmy throat. And she is showing signs of feeling nauseated. Maybe the stomach virus has reached her.

And the story is far from over yet....K is having conjunctivitis and high fever...Nadya was complaining of painful eyes and kept rubbing her eyes this afternoon. She is showing signs of getting it.

As for me...I had a bout of diarrhoea on Saturday afternoon and while that was the only episode, my stomach has remained queasy after that. Both K and I went to the doctor's this morning....but now I seem to have gotten red eye as well. My right eye is aching and starting to turn a little bloodshot and swollen. Both eyes are itchy too.

Tomorrow is Monday. Both girls definitely won't be going to school. We would need to bring them to the PD again...and I would need to go the GP again to get eye drops for myself.....

Oh ya. The helper is also having a runny nose and headache and is self-medicating.

Sigh. Quite teruk this time round.

I told K that we needed to all bathe in flower water already......banish all the bad stuff....

It's 1030pm now on Sunday night. Nadya just woke crying and coughing and retching. She said she felt like vomitting but didn't do so in the end.

I think I'm in for a long night again....
