kayden's fallen ill

well...some of you may have heard...
others not know anything...
well...i havent been working for the past week...
cos kayden was hospitalised for almost one week...

he was warded on monday...(last monday) due to an infection of his lymph nodes...
around the chin area...

it was really bad...
he developed a fever...
had tonnes of pus in the wound...
was swelling badly...
and had an operation that evening...

although it was just a minor one...
just to make a small opening so that the pus could be drained out...
but it really pains me...
he's only 4.5m old...

moreover...for the next 5 days...
we had to feed him medicine everyday...
whenever we feed him, he'll cry so badly...
he recognises his medicine and starts to close his mouth so tightly that you can hardly open it at all!
we had to beat him and find ways to make him cry so that he will open his mouth...

this naughty boy...initially he had this IV thingy on him for the medicine one...
but he's naughty lo...the first day...he pulled off the one on his hand...
second day kicked off the one on his leg...
omg...he must have forgotten how painful it was to put it in...
the doctors had to do it like 6-7 times before they could get it!!
now all his 4 limbs are all bruised with so many injection holes cos of all these!!

but i really Thank God for kayden...
at least he's still cheerful and happy when he's awake...
minus the times when he was eating medicine and when they changed his dressing...

anyway...kayden spent 5 nights in the hospital...
including 1 night in high dependency ward (post op)...
was only discharged on sat morning...
went back for checkup this morning..
luckily he's healing well...
and we dont need to bring him to doctors to change his dressings daily...
so i'll have to wake up super duper early for 1 more month...
to bathe him and change his dressing before i go to work...

well well...in this 5 nights stay in the hospital...
we saw a lot of funny things too...
haha...and a lot of sad stories...
that made us realised that although we very heartpain that kayden has to go thru all these at this age...
but there are really a lot more sad sad stories out there...

shall be going back to work on thursday...
hopefully kayden will be good...
well...after this 10 days with me..
he's grown very attached to me lehz... =)
