My Sick Records

I was busy for the past few weeks since Celest started going to childcare centre. I suddenly have the idea of keeping a record of her 'sick' days since she she started going to childcare centre.


2nd April (Day 2)

She got running nose so she returned home in the late morning. What a bad start!


9 April (Week 2)

Was picking up receipts @ PD's clinic and asking for cough medication as Celest was heard having dry cough since last night. 10/11/12 fed her Rhinathiol. 13/14 fed her Bambec.


15 April (Week 3)

Celest went to see PD as sticky greenish-yellow coloured mucus was seen in her nose as well as her cough. Can hear some phlegm in her cough now. PD said that it is due to allergy and her lungs are clear of phlegm.

16 April (Week 3)

Her body temperature rose to 37 degree but came down on the same night.

17 April (Week 3)

Brought her to school but received a call shortly after, asking me to fetch Celest back. Teacher said Celest had running nose and the mucus was green-coloured.

18 April (Week 3)

In the evening after Celest's nap, her body temperature rose again to 37. 20 degree.


24 April (Week 4)

Celest's body temperature hovered around 39/40 degree and we brought her to see Dr Lim on Sat. Dr Lim opined that it could be a sign of viral infection but unable to establish exactly which ENT. Celest was given Augmentin antibiotic which was to be consumed within the next 48hrs. If the symptoms persist, Celest will need to return back for 21st for a blood test. Thankfully, Celest's condition improved and she was spared the needles. Cannot say the same thing for her cough though. The rhinathiol doesn't seems to be working on her. Our next plan review will be the next Saturday.
