40 Degree Celsius



Thursday evening, Oliver was still his usual self when we fetched him from Delcare. But at 9pm he said that he wanted to sleep. That is extremely rare. And he didn't want to take his milk. Very strange again. Indeed, he started to get hot in the neck and forehead, and by midnight he shot up to 39.8. The fever lasted throughout the night and he was obviously feeling very uncomfortable and grouchy.

We got him to Dr Veronica in the morning and he actually measured 40 degree Celsius! He slept through the Friday afternoon and in the evening we had to send him to my Mum's place lest Heidi gets infected.

But strangely, as suddenly as the fever came, he was up and running again in Saturday.

We did quite a bit without Oliver though, like catching Red Cliff II with Jiajun's parents, scout for our sofa, and brought Heidi to this old hawker centre in Circuit Road for dinner.
