adam had asthma attack

adam had asthma attack on saturday. he started with flu and then coughing. i didn't think anything was wrong until i realized he didn't breath properly. he was having short of breath when he talked. however, he was still active.

made was still in bintulu when adam had this attack. me, plain me (stupid me, when i recall), didn't know what to do. i gave adam his asthma puff. we already had the puff since adam encountered his first attack some time last year. but that was a minor one. this time around, after i gave him the puff, he was not ok. still, i didn't bring him to see any medical practitioners thinking that, it was his flu that made him short of breath.

made arrived soon after maghrib but instead of heading to a clinic, we went to AEON to get adam's swimming suit. unfortunately, there was a night market and we didn't know how to get into the parking area. so we headed to alpha angle instead. as i was driving, and adam was next to me, i didn't feel comfortable looking at adam talking. there was time that he just stopped talking without finishing his sentences. i decided to bring adam to our regular clinic. Thank Allah, it was the right move. the doctor told us that adam had a bad asthma attack and luckily we were there before it got worsen. adam was given nebulizer and sent home with some medications. we had to monitor adam for couple of hours and advised to make our way to the nearest clinic or hospital should adam's condition shows no progress.

Alhamdulillah on sunday adam felt better. we went to AEON to get his swimming suit and back home as i was bleeding badly on my 2nd day of mensus. is this normal? i had miscarriage about a month ago and this is my first mensus. is it normal to change 3 overnight pads for half a day?

do you realize, my family asyik sakit lately? mak with her on-off fever. ammar with his fever too. me with miscarriage. made with his fever the other day. then bapak with his fever (alhamdulillah.. it was not chinkungya. demam-p.ramlee, mak kata) and now adam with asthma attack. adam was also feverish continuing his ayah's fever, 2 weeks before.

not a good start for 2009, i reckon..

adam in the clinic, with the nebulizer. mama hopes you'd feel better dearie..
