Najihah's Fever

I should write down what has happened to her since Friday afternoon:

 

Friday 3^rd July – teacher called saying that Najihah has a fever and already given her paracetamol. DH took her home early that evening. That night, she slept in her aircond bedroom and I put on wet towel on the forehead few times throughout the night.

Note: I remembered eating two table spoons of Hiraq the night before (just to finish the bottle – I hate seeing near empty bottle on the shelf) then Najihah’s feverish symptoms started.

 

Saturday 4^th July – Four doses of paracetamol but she was still feverish. Not that active but getting better after each dose. She was reluctant to eat rice for lunch and ate lots of porridge at night. We put on Cool Fever Sticker on her forehead and she started sleeping in our bedroom (with no air-cond).

 

Sunday 5^th July – She looked better but still feverish. We brought her to another doctor and her temperature was 37.9C which was quite high. Her nose bled that morning. In the evening, she looked energetic and wanted to go to the playground. I brought her for a short time and we went inside just before dark. She ate more porridge but look tired. We administered another four doses of paracetamol and 2 doses of PEACE syrup throughout the day and night. She drank lots of Nutri Tea with Wolfberry.

 

Monday 6^th July – She has no fever, her body already cooled down and went to school. She did not do much at school (her teacher told us). I took her home and she ate noodles and rice with soup for dinner. She slept early with Cool Fever sticker on her forehead.

 

Tuesday 7^th July – DH called about Najihah’s nosebleed and her tongue’s ulcer. Poor baby. Asked DH to buy young coconut and will ask her to drink a lot of plain water today. And maybe buy the ECPI water some more.
