I don't know what to say.... It is just one after another. It was the similar Hand Foot Mouth disease at first, then follow by Stomach Flu, then Shannen caught the regular flu virus again and now she was bitten by mosquito. Yes, I do agree that it is very common to get bitten by mosquito especially it has been raining lately. Shannen is super unlucky this time as the mosquito chose to bite her on her eye lid.
Fetched her back from school in the afternoon and realised that her right cheek and both legs had the "huge" bites from mosquito. So I believed she must be bitten in school. After shower, then I noticed that her left eye lid was a little swollen. Didn't think too much. Just apply the mosquito cream on her cheek and legs and we went for our nap. Soon as I woke up, saw Shannen with a swollen left eye. Could see the big differences when we compared both eyes. Elson think it was alright and didn't agree to bring her to the doctor and he said she should be alright the next day.
Guess what......... Shannen couldn't open her left eye the next day when she woke up and the rest of the bites got worse. So we decided to bring her to the nearby clinic(@ ChongPang) instead of her regular visit to the PD which we had to wait for at least 4 hours. Dr Chan had confirmed that Shannen has very sensitive skin which causes the bites to be much "bigger" than other kids. Well, I knew that cos Shannen has eczema. He gave Shannen Zytec to release the pain and itch, and also a cream to apply on the affected areas, except for her eye lid. If the swell got worse, we will have to bring her back for some antibiotics. Were lucky the all the bites got better and Shannen could open her left eye at half on the 3rd day.
Pray hard that Shannen will pass her unlucky day cos I didn't get to sleep for the whole month and have been having headache almost everyday. Got to let her bath in some "flower" water when we bring her to mummy's place on Thursday.
1st day when Shannen got bitten
