My Cherub's Den

I was worried sick when I found out that my son Yogi was having fever last Saturday. His temperature reached to 38.4 degrees. The fever subsides whenever I give him his medicine but it keeps coming back. And on the second day, he was starting to cough in the evening. I was afraid he’s got pneumonia again.

Gladly, the fever was gone on the third day and he wasn’t coughing anymore too. Maybe it’s because of the weather. It’s been hot lately and then with occasional showers. My nieces got fever too but are now okay. Whew! What a relief!

To school, that is. After being absent for two days because of being sick, he was finally able to attend classes today. He has some catching up to do with regard to his lessons because for the past two days, they already have had several assignments and quizzes done. But his teacher who is also his tutor will take care of it for me. Hehe. Well, knowing Yogi, i know it will be easy for him to catch up.

It started yesterday. He already feels hot when he awoke in the morning though what he had was only a slight fever then. I gave him medicine and went to the mall for some groceries. He didn’t complain of any ache and was even excited to go but after about thirty minutes of being there, he started complaining of headache already. I hurriedly paid for the groceries and fortunately, we were next in line at the cashier.

We were on our way out of the mall when he started to vomit and it continued inside the car on our way home. I touched his neck with the back of my hands from time to time and he was really hot. He felt weak too. I gave him med as soon as we arrived. He fell asleep after then and woke up two hours after full of sweat.

I was really worried but felt a little better when the fever subsided. I fed him his dinner and went to bed after an hour. He woke up feeling better this morning. He still has a slight fever but i do believe he’s now on his way to recovery.

Anyhow, get well soon, Yogi!
