Izzul is down with cough and running nose. He was coughing really badly - It was dry and his throat must have been so itchy and yet he could not release his cough. He turned tomato-faced. That's when we decided that it can't wait till tomorrow. So we were out to the GP right smack at midnight.
I think this might have been caused by his new found hobby - putting everything within his reach into his mouth. The elders in the house insist that Izzul got sick because he is going to start to do something new. Either walk, speak or grow some teeth. I still don't get how these two are related.
Anyway, according to some pediatrician him getting sick now is a way of him knowing his "enemies" and finding a way to protect his body against it. Building up his immunity system now means preparing to defend his body against the same virus in the future. Now, that sounds a little bit more logical to me.
But does that mean Izzul escapes from taking his medications? Although plenty of rest and fluid are said to be the best medicine for one to recover from flu and cough, bringing him to the practitioner puts my mind at rest..To know an expert's take on things, that it's nothing serious and that he will recover. Soothing words that calm my worried soul. Yes, I am willing to pay $44 for all that.
So right now, Izzul having his rest. And I'm heading for mine.
