Eeanne met a new acquaintance called Ms "Roseola Infantum" which was really not a friendly one, instead had cause so much suffering for Eeanne and worrisome to daddy mummy.
Finally Eeanne got her rash diagnosis by Dr Lim WL at Sunway Hospital yesterday. It was such a relief to hear from Dr Lim that nothing was serious and Eeanne is going to be fine and regain her beauty in next 3 days.
Who is this Roseola Infantum??
- a type of viral infection
- usually spread through saliva
- commonly affected kids below 2 years old
- normally there will be fever for around 3 days and can be as high as 39-40C
- then once fever subside the rashes will emerge
- parents usually will be panic by the terrible rashes and seek for treatment
- in fact no treatment needed, the rashes shows that the viral infection is subsiding
- there is no itch at all
- kids will experience loss of appetite
Today we really see the improvement on Eeanne's rashes but pitifully her face still look rough and red. Thank Boddhisatva that Eeanne has slowly gain back her appetite and today she had 21 oz of milk and one bowl of porridge..hooray!!!
After this incident, Eeanne has develop a very "naughty" behaviour and very smart in calling SOS whenever mummy reprimand her. Suddenly Eeanne becomes over girlish which is not her usual tough character. Normally with a hard knock on her head also she will not respond to her pain by crying, but now even a small scratch on her leg she will cry out "pain pain" and cried for mama or mummy. Eeanne is smart to look for her shelter now....
After all, everyone is so relief and life go back to normal now. By tomorrow or Friday Eeanne's rashes should have fully recover.
\Now looking at Eeanne sitting by my side watching me writing this og, I can feel how vulnerable she is. My love and the feeling to always protect her grows even stronger....She looks very sleepy and is going to fall asleep anytime by now....
Good night Eeanne.....I Love You..........

Rashes...Rashes......
Eeanne started to refuse her water intake since last Tuesday. All this while Eeanne only has rejection for her milk but never on her favourite water drinking. Yet mummy still dumb dumb to suspect anything unusual. Daddy is smart to comment that Eeanne might have sore throat but mummy took the comment so lightly. Mummy really deserve for the sense of guilt!!
It took only 2 days since then Eeanne started to have her first fever attack on Thursday evening (38.4C)and was given one dose of PCM. That day I still remember that mummy and daddy hardly sleep the whole night. Both daddy & mummy had been frightened by our own foolishness. When we tested Eeanne temperature around 1.30am, the ear thermometer showed 100.4F, we were so panic and suddenly all our mathematic conversion of Fahrenheit to Celcius just can't get out from our mind. Huh...daddy immediately opened up his labtop to surf through internet...oh no...it seemed like taking a decade for daddy to tell the result in Celcius. Hai...finally mummy just burst out "handphone has the converter!"
Finally we got the 38.0C...we can't sleep since then and keep monitoring Eeanne ear temperature. At 2 a.m. the reading shot up to 101.7F(38.7C) and we decided to put her on 2nd dose of PCM. The whole night I kept waking up to feel her forehead and PCM worked but only last for 5 hours.
The next early morning around 7a.m, Eeanne's fever went up to 39.1C, I gave her anohter dose of PCM. We brought her to her usual Paed. and only Progesic(PCM) and anti-inflammatory enzyme were prescribed. The diagnosis was....Eeanne had a white ulcer on her throat!!!!
That Friday....mummy was just like a zombie during her company meeting....
Friday night we were lucky to have our Doctor cousin's visit and Eeanne was prescribed with Augmentin syrup.
Sat&Sun were like a nightmare for mummy..Eeanne's fever very unstablebly going "ding dong'. Eeanne started to vomit immediately after taking her medicine especially the Augmentin, then it followed by diarrhea. Then she started to refuse all food and drink....
Sat: zero oz of milk intake
Sun: only 5oz of milk intake
Mummy really really panic when Eeanne didn't even want to have her ORS after so many times diarrhea...Eeanne is going to get dehydrated!!! It was so heart sick to see her getting lethargic and inactive....her eyes were so drooping and it can tell from her eyes expresion that Eeanne was so stunned. Mummy started to give PCM suppository on Sat. night to prevent Eeanne from vomitting.
Throughout whole Sat, every 2 hours mummy got to change Eeanne's diaper due to the watery stool.
For only 2 days (Sat&Sun), mummy became supermodel by keep changing cloth now and then due to Eeanne's vomit.
Finally Eeanne got through the battle and got her normal temperature this morning(Monday). Mummy sleepily got the feel on Eeanne's neck and forehead temperature and with such a relief to FEEL her temperature back to normal. When mummy opened her eyes....AH.......what happen to Eeanne's face....??
Eeanne's face, front & back trunk were full of red dots....oh poor Eeanne, another wave of worrisome hit us......
We can't find any clinic open today due to Deepavali public holiday. We waited for Weng Tarng cousin just to have a look on Eeanne's rashes. We gave her Zyrtec and before her sleep on Pirion. The rashes do not seems to be subsiding. Till now still have no idea on the source of this rashes, could be allergic reaction to Augmentin according to Weng Tarng cousin....mom in law said it might be a false alarm of Measles....mom said it is a detoxifying episode aftermath of the fever....
Hopefully tomorrow morning mummy able to see Eeanne's happy and beautiful face...even though I know clearly this will take around 3-4 days to subside. No matter how Eeanne's face look like, she is still mummy's Pretty Little Princess....

Be Present...
Today mummy and daddy just went for the movie of Mamma Mia. It is really a good, relaxing and touching movie, there was one scene mommy really lost control of herself where she shed her tears very naturally without knowing why....
It is the scene when Donna, Sophie's mum helping Sophie to prepare herself for the wedding. The song by ABBA "Slipping Through My Fingers" was played on that scene. The lyric goes like this:
Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
I watch her go with a surge of that well known sadness and I have to sit down for a while, the feeling that I’m loosing her forever and without really entering her world. I’m glad whenever I can share her laughter, that funny little girl
Slipping through my fingers all the time, I try to capture every minute the feeling in it, slipping through my fingers all the time.
Do I really see what’s in her mind? each time I think I’m close to knowing...she keeps on growing, slipping through my fingers all the time.
Sleep in our eyes, her and me at the breakfast table, barely awake I let precious time go by. Then when she’s gone there’s that odd melancholy feeling and a sense of guilt I can’t deny. What happened to the wonderful adventures, the places I had planned for us to go? Well.. some of that we did but most we didn’t and why I just don’t know.
Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture and save it from the funny tricks of time. Slipping through my fingers....
Suddenly this song really hit me. Suddenly I have the frightened feeling on seeing Eeanne grows...I just hope she won't grow that fast. Huh, how stupid and ridiculous mummy is. I realise that I'm too attach to Eeanne which is not a healthy sign.
Now I understand why my mother cried so badly on my wedding day even she knows that we will still see each other and talk through the phone so often.
Very soon..times fly as we know, Eeanne will have her own thinking and own circle of living, of course she will not understand how mummy feel now just like mummy never ever understand why grandmom cried for mummy.
Since become a mom for Eeanne, I appreciate more on what my mum had done for me. It is really true that you will not ever feel & truly understand the love between the mother and daughter's bonding until you become a mum by yourself. The love and bonding is really undescribable by words, can only be felt....
Now I look at Eeanne, her innocent and happy smile. Mummy and daddy really need to be present and treasure every moment that we spend together. The memory of her trying hard to open her eye to see the world at the hospital, her first smile, seeing her learning to turn, sit, crawl, stand, walk and now run...etc etc...all these happen just so fast (feel like just happen yesterady) and now it is really a history already and 2 years more Eeanne will be ready for nursing school....Wah...it is really so fast!! I really afraid of the empty nest feeling!!
Be present! Be present! Eeanne's growing process is a definite. Daddy and mummy will precious the every single moment with you. Your presence and laughter have bring so much joy to our life and make us a complete happy family. Yes..it will slip through our fingers, yet it will be a memorable one!
Slipping through my fingers......

This Weekend Activities with Eeanne
Saturday Afternoon...
It all started one night when Eeanne poured the Ego Bath Oil on the floor and used her both palms sweeping on the lotion. The idea of Finger Painting strike me immediately. Remember I read in the Baby Center about using white flour and food coloring for finger painting. This has became our this Sat home fun activity. It was fun seeing Eeanne's dress full of colors spot and she enjoyed it very much. But we had left a big mess for kakak to tidy up..haha..
Sunday Morning..
Daddy and mommy have been talking about bringing Eeanne to Sunday Dharma School but never made it. Finally this sunday morning mommy brought Eeanne to Subang Jaya Vihara Temple.
We joined in mid session while the Tzu Chi had their Master Zheng Yuen video conference dharma talk on "how to save our earth". This was Eeanne first trip to temple and first experience sitting quietly for a public talk. Surprisingly Eeanne was very cooperative. She looked puzzle and kept standing to look at the uncles and aunties sitting behind us. During the sign language singing presentation, Eeanne was amazed by the music and the sign language gesture from the audience. Certainly Eeanne had no idea what was going on, instead she participated in dancing with the music. It was so cute looking at her innocent brave dancing in circle. She had became the focus of attention from the audience...
Sunday Evening..
It has long been planned to bring Eeanne for swimming. Today I decided to bring Eeanne to Saraka Aparment for her 2nd swimming session since her last during 3 mth old. I took out her long kept baby float from the shelf and got kakak to pump it in full air. Unfortunately it was a raining Sunday. We waited since 4pm and hoped for the weather change but it kept drizzling the whole evening. I dissapointed Eeanne again. For a compensate reward, we played bubble blowing at the car porch. I promised to bring Eeanne to Saraka Apartment tomorrow with finger cross....
Sunday telecommunication with "bobo" at Mcca....
Eeanne always like to talk with the phone just like a adult does. Her way of talking with the phone has become mama's entertainment. "suk suk" said that it is like talking on a big business plan. Yet no one understand what she is talking about, but she looked really serious....
