Sigh...

Yes, our Precious is unwell again. She came down with a cough last night and had difficulty falling asleep because she was coughing ever so often. Daddy commented in the morning that she was mumbling in her sleep and calling out to me.

I was as dead as a log last night and was in La La Land immediately after my head touched the pillow and was none the wiser about her restless night.

And in the afternoon, C had a fever so I brought her to the Doc's as soon as I got back. I also told the Doc about Cheryl's morning sinus problem and he gave her something for that. He said that the meds is safe for children to take on a long term basis and for as long as she suffers from this sensitive nose aka runny nose. The only comfort was that he said she will outgrow it.

When I told Daddy, he jokingly asked me if the meds is safe for him too because his nose gives him the same problem every morning too. And he also said I should ask Doc if he will ever outgrow the illness. Ops, does this mean that C will never rid herself of this??

I don't want to think about it. As it is, she is showing signs of mild eczema on the back of her hands and Doc said it is very common for children to have eczema when they have sensitive nose. Watery eyes is another symptom.

So for now, we will tackle one problem at a time. She has her cough syrup, and she will be fed Adezio religiously till her "morning flu" clears because Daddy and I do not want this to develop into a full blown asthma thing. I get a note from Ms Sally ever so often telling us that C has a "very runny nose for months" so I wrote her back to inform her about the Doc's diagnosis.
