When the children fall sick...


...the parents suffer.

First the younger son, fever. Some kind of viral infection. He also has sore throat.

Baby boy became super clingy, refuses to eat, and cries randomly.

Poor baby is feeling discomfort, we know, but we can't really do anything.

Doesn't want yogurt, glucose, any food at all. Got us really worried. At least he is accepting breast milk now.

Wifey's back must be aching. I know mine is. Both of us with panda eyes.

Just as the younger son is getting better, we found our elder son hot to the touch.

A quick check and yup, he has fever. Could hardly tell since he's so lively and acts as usual.

But just like his younger brother, giving him medicine is as if feeding him poison. The house is coming down.

We end up using the rectal medicine. Seriously "up yours" in this case.

Tired but refuses to sleep. The "it's not sleeping, just resting" trick doesn't work on him anymore. Sometimes having a smart kid is troublesome.

Looks like the sleepless nights will continue for us. Ditto the back ache, and the disruption of our meal and appetite.

Get well soon my boys, papa and mama are burning out.
