Brought him to the doctor's on Friday and took care of him the whole of Friday and Saturday. Both days see him laying on the sofa listlessly, as if all the energy is zapped from him through the various episodes of vomit and diarrhoea. Nothing much went into his system, except for some porridge and bread.
On Saturday evening, he felt a little better, hence he threw a small tantrum when he saw his dinner was still porridge. He insisted that he wanted to have rice for dinner. Seeing that his fever from two days ago has subsided, we relented.
It was quite a mistake, because a few hours later, he threw up his dinner again, and that's when he said: "连晚餐都吐出来了。" Somehow though, after that episode, he had a good night's rest.
At around 6am today, both Yoke Ping and I were coincidentally woken up by different reasons, and so we decided to perform one task for Lunar New Year that we have not completed yet - to prepare the Ang Pows - at that time.
Just as we were counting the money, Luck Heng woke up and starting asking me if he could play his Lego Police Station. I was quite delighted, as the past two days he was so weak that he did not even have an inkling of interest in playing any of his toy. We left him on his own to play his toy, while we we busy with the Ang Pows.
As he played, the normal Luck Heng returned: he was yakking both to himself and to us. Usually we would find his yakking rather repetitive, some times boring, and at times irritating. However, this time we were both appreciating, as the return of the yakking means that he is more or less recovered!
