Suspected Dengue Fever


Carmen is getting better, she lazily lying down on her car seat at home to rest

 Since we returned to Klang from Ipoh last Sunday, Carmen began to have fever till now. It has been the six day as today. We brought her to see doctor four times already. Even after so many times of seeing different doctor, she still have fever, but has been showing sign of improvement luckily, but just dont understand why fever just cant go away from her.

Concerned family members called in, asking us to send her for blood test, suspected possible of dengue fever, as currently the number of cases in the disease is in the rise, floods in the northern area has affected water accumulation and led it to the breeding ground for mosquitos. This can be a deadly disease if not properly treated.

This morning, we brought her to hospital to seek specialist advice again. But it seems that her condition has been improving. Her fever subsided since yesterday evening, hopefully it didint come back visiting her. The peadiatrician recommends no blood test needed this time, since she is showing signs of improvement and also recommend observation period before we see him again, since she didnt seems to show any signs and symtoms of dengue fever. Thank godness!

Carmen missed her school this whole week, while i missed my work for the whole week as well. She missed all her training and rehearsal for her school concert on this coming Sunday, which means tomorrow she have to go for her school annual concert at Crystal Crown hotel, Klang. I hope she is getting better, and can join in the event, everything has been prepared for her tomorrow. She herself also very excited and awaiting for it!

Daddy's purposely took a day off to see Carmen present on the stage. No doubt that this is another milestone for us as a parent to see our own child present on the stage. I am eagerly awaiting for it to happen!
