Well, hello!

okie... so it have been - what - 2 or 3 months since I wrote anything here. I would say I'm busy but I would be PARTLY lying. Hehehe..
So, to make it up, I'm gonna post atleast 3 posts today.
okay - FEBRUARY, I was extremely busy. No lying there. 3 of my siblings ended up in the hospital every other week. And I took stayed and took care of them. PHEWW!!! We (Mama, Babah and I) were winded up. Not to mention, Babah was outstationed twice during this (although the first time he went back early). So, Mama got a migraine-inducing month, to say the least.

First, Iliya stayed at KPJ Kajang hospital after a whole night of throwing up. She was diagnosed with food poisoning. During my stay at the hospital, I was also sick. Nausea and stomach ache. The doctor was worried if I got the same virus as Iliya, so she first gave me antibiotics and a pil to help me with the nausea. It was helpful. I was worried I will end up like Iliya; laying on the bed with IV drip connected to my left hand. She was admitted in the hospital for 5 days, although on the 3rd day, the doctor let her go just for home leave. She was to come early in the morning to continue with the antibiotics until the fifth day. I still had the occasional stomach ache now and then.

After Iliya was discharged, I think it was 2 or 3 days after that when we went out for dinner at MINES when Hazwan started to throw up. When we got back home, Haziq threw up. And bibik told us that Inaayah (they did not follow) already threw up 3 times!!!! while we were gone.
Mama and Babah now started to well- get intensely worried. I was quite fascinated really. You know, Haikal was the only one who did not get affected by this - umm... whatever disease that was going on. They (Hazwan, Haziq, Inaayah) were brought to the clinic and after that to the hospital for check up. They got A LOT of medicine *nasty face*. During that week, Inaayah was the most sick of them all, Hazwan had stop with the puking as them all but still had stomach ache and Haziq seemed fine.

Inaayah temperature came in waves. Once, it was 38.7 degree Celcius and she seemed so weak and tired. She wore a sleepy look and had tantrums. A week went by and she still had not changed so she was admitted into KPJ hospital. As Iliya, she got salmonella food poisoning. Although hers was not as intensed as Iliya's thus she stayed for only 3 days. By the 2nd day, she was most active. She chased the nurses around and shouted and scream constantly.

One week went by, and Hazwan was then admitted to the hospital. His stomach ache had not eased after almost 2 weeks. The nurses and the doctor (Dr. Mahani - the padeatrician who doctored all 3 of my siblings) know me quite well by then. It was quite embaressing.
Again it was caused by the salmonella bacteria. I wonder where did this bacteria came from.
He was admitted for 5 days and an extra one day because after an ultrasound and CT scan, it was found that he had a lot of faeces that had not been umm.. excreted. Doctor Sulaiman said it looked like he had not poop for a week. So, the extra day was to empty his stomach.

So yeah. I also studied while my stay at the hospital. Quite an accomplishment, I'll say. I made a few study notes too.
a get well gift from Hazwan's class - it was huge!
