is no fun. In fact, it's bothersome. The poor girl finally succumbed to the virus, much as I'd prayed she wouldn't. But it was too much to hope for, seeing I was as sick as a puppy last week with the flu, and with the little one clamouring all over me and demanding I put her to sleep - which I did and eventually fell asleep next to her as well, dispersing my germs in the general region of her face - it would've been a miracle if she didn't catch it. Her fever was worrying at times, almost reaching 40°C last Thursday. Despite her watery eyes and runny nose, she was still in pretty good spirits, which is always a good indicator of how sick she really feels. If she's still active, we're less worried. It's only when she's dull and limp that we know she can't take it. MJ looked after her most of the time as she fell sick on my busiest day of the week, Thursday, when I have a full day of classes. Still, I managed to cook some porridge for them before I left.
No, she's not having a facial, but is inhaling Eucalyptus scented vapour from a bowl of hot water which MJ added a few drops of concentrated Eucalyptus oil to.
Temporarily holding a cool wet towel to her forehead while we got the more long term solution, which you'll see in the next pix.
Osim's fever gel patch which one can stick in the fridge to cool before strapping it across the forehead. You have to leave it at room temperature for a few minutes before attaching it to the forehead or it'll shock as it's too cold.
Never too sick to 'read' the Globe, especially if Obama is on Page 1. A true journalist in the making...?

Awww, poor baby, hope she gets well soon!
Fen and Eugene brought Ethan over last night to bai nian, and he kept wanting to play in the swimming pool though it was 11pm and cold! We were saying that we'll probably meet for a swim and a bbq when you guys return in well, three months right? Sher would have popped too by then!
