Virus attack


Dear boys,
Firstly ammi is grateful for being a SAHM & for having good health..the last few days has been very hectic & nightmarish, all of u boys got sick after one another..Ammi was ur doctor, nurse, cook, as well as ur very own ammi. It all started when yaya got the flu. Yaya my dear. u look strong in appearance but u are easily ill, u had cough & cold for a few days then you got sick, u caught a fever & had to be away from school. Baba took u to the clinic & u're on antibiotics,clearly u hated it so much! u said it was disgusting, u my dear, don't make a very good patient as ammi is always losing her patience in order to make u swallow ur meds.


Boys,
 Just as yaya was getting better, waidi my darling u got infected too. My poor poor waidi  who has just turned 5 months. U were constantly miserable, hardly sleeps, hardly feed, hardly pee, u cries a lot & likes to be held all the time. U had coughs & a runny nose which makes u double miserable..ur fever goes up & down, sometimes as high as 37.8c U likes it if ammi puts a cool towel on ur head but hated it if has to wipe ur runny nose. All this while baba was busy, baba was a baba owl, hardly sleeps, surviving on kopi radix to keep awake, baba at that time was trying to complete his presentation paper for a seminar at UM, also at the same time doing his proposal to apply for USM GRANT, and if granted InsyaAllah will help baba financially for his 3 years phD course. So u see, the role of taking care of the boys are left mostly to ammi..



Boys,
Ammi is not complaining, at that time ammi was like a zombie herself, what with maintaining the house, getting food ready, yaya's homeworks & hafazan, syasyaik's demanding attention, baba's abnormal hours, taking care of sick waidi, ammi was about to collapse, ammi hardly sleeps, ammi didnt have a proper shower or meal, ammi has black bags under her eyes, ammi has a sore throat & a bad cough but Alhamdulillah ammi didn't fell ill..ammi just cannot imagine if i'm was the one to fell ill.


Boys,
After a few sleepless day & nights, waidi looks better, u smile & was urself once more, ammi was so relieved..as u are just a baby, there was nothing much i can give u except lots of love, cuddle, plain panadol syrup to help reduce the fever. Ur fever was reduced but then it transfered to syasyaik. Syasyaik my cheeky one, u had a fever during the night & a row of dry coughs unlike yaya's. It is scary to hear, u complain of sore throat & a headache. U were also excused from school. U as the manja one wants ammi to do everything, to wash u, bathe u, feed u, cuddle & such..u were less cheeky when ill, less active & less talkative..



Boys,
Ammi prays daily for the wellbeing & health of all of u..ammi is once again forever grateful for able to become a SAHM, to take care of all of u in sickness & in health, remember boys, this is all Allah's doing..to test his servants, to test u boys & mostly ammi..remember Him when u are sick & well, remember He is the one who lets us live or die, we just have to overcome the tests with efforts, tawakkal & doa..


Ammi is tired, ammi wants to sleep, sleep tight my 3 owlets..ammi loves all of u very much..
