Jaiden is sick

Sigh... Something that is unavoidable. Jaiden is down with flu starting last Saturday. This makes him more cranky as compared to normal days. Where did he gets the virus from? The other kid that Ngo Jeh is taking care of la.... This boy is having flu last week. Despite how Ngo Jeh asked him not to go near Jaiden, he will go near Jaiden, kiss him, play with him, etc... Me and hubby have already predicted that Jaiden will catch flu soon.

We gave Jaiden the flu medication prescribed by paed. (from the last round he had flu) at night. Nevertheless, he had difficulty breathing and he woke up a few times in the middle of the night. Neither hug, carry nor swing can tame him down. We fed him some warm water and soon after that he fall asleep. The next day, I decided not to give him the flu medication anymore as too much "western" medication will make him very "yeok". I gave him 1/2 of "bao ying dan" in the morning after his breakfast. Jaiden had difficulty to take his morning nap as well. He only managed to sleep for an hour. I gave him the other 1/2 of "bao ying dan" at night before he go to sleep. At last, I don't see any difficulty of him breathing when I tuck him to sleep then.
