Still Sick Part 2

Lil Shauna is still sick. The fever appears to be subsiding and the intervals between the paracetamol doses have lengthened. We didn't have to resort to brufen yday. However, her tummy is still giving her problems, big problems. Popo said that she complained of tummy ache very often the whole day. The poor girl was also very hungry but started running for the toilet after food. She must have lost weight.

The runs also appeared to worsen in the afternoon and towards the night. She was complaining of tummy ache before bed but there wasn't any more medicine to give her having taken them a few hours earlier. She went to the toilet 2x in the earlier part of the night. I fed her medicine at 11.30pm and that helped her sleeps. At 4.30pm, she woke up complaining of tummy ache and for the next hour, she went to the toilet 5x. She said that she counted and had been to the toilet 20 times. I gave her Smecta, which is supposed to help with the loose tools but held back the medicine which will help to rid wind (and I supposed less wind = less pain), so that Popo has something to give her in the day and they will both suffer less. I presumed that sleeping helps to numb some pain. 

The night was torturous and I was zombiefied this morning. This is the 3rd night with very disruptive sleep. Lil Shauna is also tired out with the disturbed sleep but she gets to snooze in the day. At least she was without fever last night, which made running for the toilet less painful for her. On Monday night, she was so tired and sick that I actually found her sleeping on the "throne" during one of the runs. Poor girl.

The girl has skipped school for 3 consecutive day, which I don't find a big deal. Lil Isaac gets to skip school too. He has apparently refused to go to school too. Faint. I am so glad that it is PH tomorrow. I hope the poor girl will feel better with mummy by her side.
