a few hours at NUH children emergency...

last Thursday Mummy came back late after attending a personal grooming course. I waited for Mummy to come back to go to sleep. the moment she came back, she quickly went to coax me to sleep after washing up. then I started to get cranky. maybe I'm upset that she came back so late to coax me to sleep. maybe I got a tummy upset. maybe the erupting molar is making me uncomfortable. I keep on crying.

Daddy gave me ovaltine, Grandma gave me some oats to eat. I still cry after that. this went on a few hours. they got no choice and decided to bring me to A&E. Daddy drove us to AH to find out they don't have children emergency there. so we went to NUH. I was struggling and screaming. I don't want to go hospital!!

when we reach NUH, it was 1.30 am and there a quite a number of other children there already there. the nice doctor (at that point of time I don't find her nice) asked a few questions to eliminate the possible causes. then she told Mummy that she suspect I got UTI and asked the nurse to put on the urine bag for me. while we were waiting for my urine to be collected, I played a while with the children.

when the nurse came to check, the urine collected was not enough for the test. so the doctor got no choice but to insert a tube to extract my urine out. I don't like that!!! why must Mummy put me through that torture?? I don't want her to put me down on the bed, I clinged on to her, but she still put me there. Daddy pressed my arms down, Mummy pressed my thighs down while the nurse insert the tube. why must they do this to me?? no matter how I cry, how I plea, they just say it will be fine. NO, it's not fine at all.

anyway, after the ordeal, the doctor told Mummy that she found some traces of blood in my urine. she will need to bring them for lab test and inform them of the result. I fell asleep on Mummy's chest on the way home. I still love Mummy even if she put me through the torture.
