Home sweet home. After 5 days of staying in the hospital, we're back home.

Yup, the little girl was hospitalized since last Thursday, due to... guess what... Dengue + Pneumonia + Acute Tonsillopharingitis. Now is that stressful or what?!? I cried a river upon hearing this from the doctor, and felt that I was at my lowest as a mother. How did that happen? Well apparently, pneumonia and ATP were likely complications of dengue, so it's not like these were totally not connected.

That was really scary for me, as I wondered how come the little girl is so pampered and all, and yet she got sick that way. What scared me even more was her fever that never went away, up until the very last moment before being discharged. So many blood tests, so many needles, so many medicines to take.

But the little girl was very strong and brave. She only wanted me to hold her hand whenever blood was extracted, whenever she needed to take medicines, and during her x-ray. Brave brave child.

That's the power of mother-daughter connection I guess. And I'm glad I was one of her sources of strength. I love you my daughter. I promise to be there for you always and keep you from harm as much as I can.
