Dehydration and Systemic Viral Illness
Buting was confined in the hospital due to possible dehydration. She was having recurring high fever caused by an illness, which was identified only after 24 hours in the hospital. At first, we were hesitant to have her confined when the ER pedia said she could not see anything wrong except that she has a recurring fever. However, dehydration is something that has be taken seriously according to the doctor. Imagine my guilt (having second thoughts re confinement) when another pedia doing the rounds rattled off a list of complications due to dehydration. I almost cried. It was not the cost we were worried about since my company HMO covers everything but the injections and IV and the feeling of being cooped up in a hospital are some things I don't want Buting to experience at such a young age - 1 yr and 10 months...I know such things are bound to happen, and it just did.
All in all, Buting's first hospital confinement is ok. Having a large private suite in SLBGC with a lazy boy, big sofa, and big LCD TV helped too :)
Dear Little Buting,
Getting sick is part of life but I just hope it will not involve any needles since it really pains me and your daddy to see you get hurt.
Nevertheless, here are the highlights of your first hospital stay:
- although you cry during injections and checking of vitals, it was short and as if nothing happened after
- when the doctor prohibited us from roaming the halls due to infectious diseases like measles, you did not anymore insist on going out
- you started singing the intro song of Frozen when you wanted to let us know you want to watch the movie. Before, you just sing "let it go, let it go..." :)
- you removed your IV in the wee hours of the morning when everybody's asleep. Good thing the doctor did not anymore advise to re-insert the IV since your appetitte has returned to normal and you were very active. Besides, you have used up almost 2 IV bottles already.
- eventually, you have gotten used to having your vitals checked. You were such a good girl!
- when the nurse said it was possible we will be discharged already, you said very clearly "wonderful!".

FTNB - Tonkatsu by Terazawa, Gbelt 2
Hi blog! Long time, no see na naman....here are some of the food trip ni buting pix...collage collage lang pag may time...
My dear little buting, we let you try resto food since as foodie parents, we want you to experience new tastes and flavors. Hope we are not doing it too soon. You already know how to appreciate appetizing food pix by saying a big "wow" with every turn of the menu. After this food trip, we now know you don't like oily food :) Good thing we always have a pack of marie biscuits everytime we go out. What you really liked about our food trip was the chance to walk about, say "hi" and wave to a lot of people and climbing the stairs to this burger place (forgot the name already) numerous times :) Great work out for mommy and daddy hehe.
We love you my little buting. Simple trips like these create happy memories to mommy and daddy and hopefully, to you too.
