We are 3!
Posted by tyan (Singapore, Singapore) on 29 May 2007 in People & Portrait.
Sorry I went MIA for some time.There were some images i posted in advance which i removed again.This week was a very eventful week. i came down with very high fever late last week.Was hit by severe headache,joint pains and aches and 39.8 deg fever.I thought it was dengue but turned out to be a bacterial infection in my breast.
This incident humbled me greatly.I suppose i sometimes am filled with self pity that i had take care of my kids with no help and i told myself that i could certainly do it on my own.On the night i was in a delirium,it dawned upon me how finite and vulnerable i was as a human.I had become so bitter that i decided i did not need any help,not anyone,not God.And when i was down,i realised life and death were really not within my control.I can only wait for it to happen to me.I was suddenly afraid that I had to leave behind my dear husband and children,my family.That i could not be around to care for them anymore.This incident caused me to see that we had coped all along with God's grace.And i realised how much my parents and sister cared for us,helping us with the babies when i had to see the doctor.
My medication meant i could not breast feed Ian anymore,which i was very disappointed and guilty about.But to think of it positively,i am glad to be alive. I am thankful for another day to be with my loved ones.:)

heh heh,mommy tyan finally reveals herself and the man behind the scenes...3 years ago that is.
Today is our third wedding anniversary!
We have been married for exactly 3 years now! 3 years do not seem a long time to many people but we went through tremendous changes.From singlehood to couplehood,from couplehood to parenthood,from parents of one to parents of two...
Anyway, we made it through God's grace. We are 3!:)

Take good care of urself. U are taking the med to stop the BM production? Bad engorgement? Dun feel guilty...there're so many other ways to u can provide and take good care of Ian.
Sigh...Robyn is down with fever again. Must be the french fries on Sat...:(

@Nancy: Doc gave me antibiotic and panadol,could still BF from the ok breast. Then after confirming it was breast infection and not dengue and that the lump seemed to have become more swollen doc gave another med said it was suppressant to get rid of the lump and he told me i couldnt BF anymore,strangely after i took the med my supply just sort of waned off.Thanks for encouraging,i was hoping to save on the milk powder money,haha.
Poor robyn,is she falling sick often?I heard HFMD is on the loose again,must take note since she is attending school.caleb was falling sick very often and we bought this KIDDY PHARMATON for him to take everyday.Recommended by lawrence's colleague.Its apparently very effective!

Talk about HFMD....Robyn got the virus. Very cranky. Hungry but the ulcers hurting when she swallows. Doc said there's 5 ulcers at the back of her mouth. I saw another at the front. Poor thing.
