We touch down at Singapore Changi Airport and went straight to Dr Sim clinic at Elias mall, and was 1st in the Q (NICE...!!! For the past 48hrs, this is the only gd thing that happens).... But the clinic opens at 1830hrs and we are 30min earlier.
Time passed at tortise pace ... tick tok tick tok tick tok ......
Finally, the nurse appears from inside the clinic and starts to unlock the door. Once I see the nurse coming, I gave her the thumb up (Roanna is beside me, telling me: Dont be crazy!!!) But the nurse didnt even smile back at me... but what the heck .. I dont really care also !
***Anyway I dont remember knowing any clinic nurse that is friendly. They are always stern/angry looking***
5min passed - 1835hrs.
Alfred: Nurse, Dr not here yet ??
Nurse: Dr is usually here at 1840hrs.
Alfred: okioki...(not very satisified because I just want to get this over and done with, so can go back change and bath.)
Then I turn to Roanna and recheck to make sure we have everything that needs to show Dr Sim.
Health book, lab reports from RSPI, medicine prescribe by Doc in Jakarta....
Alfred: Dear, where is the medicine??
Roanne: I dont know, you put it back into the bag before we board the plane right!
Alfred: ARghhh... yaya..!! How? Need to show Dr Sim?
Roanna:Errr...I think oki la...(while trying to remember the name of the medication).
Alfred: Never mind.. I go take (The car is parked quite a distance away cos I forget to bring my cashcard and cant park at the "cashcard car park" below the clinic!)
I ran as fast as my legs can take me (OMG .. When is the last time I ran this fast!!!) and halfway through, I saw DR Sim walking towards the clinic.. Damn it !!! I ran and ran and ran... reached the car, opens the boot and grap the medicine and double up back to the clinic.
Alfred: Anyone went in already?
Roanna: wow... you are fast...! No, Dr Sim just reach, we are still 1st in the Q.
Alfred: haha... okioki gdgd (panting like a dog!!!!)
Reanne Leek.... you can go in now...... called the nurse!
Dr Sim: What happen to her?
Alfred: Fever, high fever (still panting and sweating)
Dr Sim: Since when ?
Alfred: Sunday.! But the fever is very high, 40degC.
Dr Sim: okioki .. let me see.
He also took out the ice cream stick and put into Reanne's mouth and shines his torch into her throat....
Dr Sim: Reddness !!!
Alfred: Ya, we know. This is what Dr Karyle told us also. But can it cause such high fever??
Dr Sim: hmmm.... I dont think so. (He proceed to check her body).
Well.. Reanne is so Ke Qi that she gave Dr Sim a welcome gift.!... diapers full of shit!
Roanna: ops..sorry Doc!
Dr Sim: No problem !! (looking very professional)
Alfred: Where is her diapers?
Roanna: Its in the luggage. You said put it all inside ma. (And the luggage is in the car!!!)
***Damn it.. everything we need is in the CAR!!!*** Apparently it was my bright idea to put our diaper bag and all the things that Reanne needs into a hand carry luggage (those that comes with 4 wheels). So we dun need to carry a extra bag with us, we just pull the hand luggage! LAZY !!!!
5min later....
Dr Sim: It must be a virus attack.
Alfred: Then how?
Dr Sim: I will give her a stronger medicine and we will see how in 2 days.
Alfred: 2days again!!
We then proceed to show him the lab report from Jakarta. And Dr Sim said that, Dr Sander is making the right decision to administer a blood test and urine test for her. Its appropriate. Its actually can tell us alot of things by reading this report, said Dr Sim.
*** Thumbs up for Dr Sander***
Dr Sim also comment that the medication prescribe by Dr Karyle is too mild, and cant kill the virus (No Wonder the fever cant go down). I think Dr Karyle thought that Reanne fever is caused by the throat infection (which is not...wrong diagnostic....FAINT !!!!!). Dr Sim agree also. After explaining to us what is the likely cause, follow by what kind of prescription he will be giving and also what to expect in the next 48hrs, our hearts becomes lighter and most important we know what can be expected in the next 48hrs (unlike Dr Lily thats only tells us to go back and wait!!!)....GD JOB Dr Sim!
By 1930hrs, we are back home!!! Its nice to be home (Mum took the effort to rush home from Punggol to help us change the bedsheet)! After settling down and we took turns to bath and by 2030hrs we are all cleaned up (especially me) and of course we end the day with a good dinner..... Wanton noodle and fried oyster from Changi Village !
All the below happens while Reanne is sleeping..........
Roanna: HAO CHI HAO CHI HAO CHI
:)
The upcoming 2days, we receive alot of calls from families member asking "How is her fever"?? "Is she recovering well" ?? and also some "Grandma remedies for curing high fever" !
As I conclude our "Race Against Time" sequel, Reanne is recovering well under the absolute care of Roanna in Singapore and she is back to her active and curious self (other than rashes developed because of the fever). During these few days while I am not with them, she had learned how to say "Please" using sign language (rubbing her right palm on her chest) and also clapping her hands (which we have been teaching her since 2months ago. And when its happens, its a pity that I am not around to witness it!). Neverthless, she did her new tricks infront of the webcam which i get to see also, although I am 1000miles away. GD JOB BABY !
Lastly, I will end this with a "Nothing can stop me" photo :
