The young, the old and the sick

Lights, camera, "ACTION!"

haizzzzzz...... finally got a chance to breathe.

Just got Jaymes to eat his lunch and take his medicine before sending him off to bed. He has a raging fever due to a viral infection. The fever started since 11pm the night before. I brought him to the doctor this morning who made him do a blood test. His white blood cell count was 21,000! So he was referred to Changi Hospital. Because he was having a high fever, he had to put on a mask and was isolated.

A young doctor, who doesn't look more than 30 years old, at the A&E examined him and sent him home with antibiotics and medicine for fever, sore throat, giddiness, inflammation and cough.... oh and 2 days medical leave.

Yesterday morning, we had to send Chris' 93-year-old mother to the doctor due to hypertension. She has been feeling ill the past week. First she had glaucoma and we brought her to the Opthamologist. Then she fell and had a nasty gash on her temple and was rushed to A&E.

Chris by the end of the evening was feeling yucky. He had a headache and sore throat and fever. Probably due to the weather and the constant running up and down to attend to my mother-in-law. I don't enjoy playing nurse whenever someone in the family is sick......

Make-up before the shoot.....

And yesterday afternoon, we had the Kids' Central TV crew at our house to film Jaymes. I was also in the show. Only a flitting glimpse lah! You would think acting is easy! In fact after yesterday's shoot, it killed whatever hopes I ever have of being nominated for an Oscar. I can't act! hehe....And I thought I was a drama queen. haizzz....I froze in front of the camera and garbled my lines. Jaymes and his friends laughed like mad!

Thanks to dk (my k-son) for recommending Jaymes to kevin.

Watch Jaymes on Kids' Central on 28th April 2007 at 1.30pm.
