Discharge

Brian has been cleared to discharge as he does not have any more febrile fits attack after 24 hours. He is our main worry whenever he contract high fever as there is a high chances he will get febrile fits attack. The waiting for discharge takes two to three hours. It involve waiting for medication, appointments and the discharge letter. The payment for Brian hospital stay will be taken care by our insurance company, NTUC Income. We do not need to made payment as we have bought a full H&S plan including a rider to offset the deductible and co-insurance fees.

Fits Attack

My son got another Febrile Fits attack in the early morning before 8am. It is less than one minute and the nurses and doctors spring into action. He was given the fits medication and fresh oxygen. This allow him to recover within 5 minutes after the attack but he felt sleepy afterwards. He got a few hours of sleep before waking up and was feeling full of energy.
His mother went back in the late morning to rest. I need to play and entertain with him till the late afternoon as he was back to normal health. It is good to see him full of energy again. He has a good hour of sleep before the nurse disturb him again as they need to give him two doses of puff using the space chamber.
My wife return at 6pm with our daughter and my son favourite food, Sushi. He ate finish his portion and have a fun time with his sister. He did not show his anger when I went back together with my daughter.

Febrile Fits

My son has a history to have febrile fits whenever he has a high fever. He underwent one fits at home and another at the KK Women's and Children's Hospital. He was admitted to hospital for observation for any fit seizure although his temperature has drop to normal. I have taken up the B2 ward as usual but some surprise was awaiting us. As the hospital was full, we were move to a deluxe 1 room bed but 4 beds were crammed inside. Only 1 bed will have access to the necessary medical equipment which happen to be our son one as he need oxygen access. The admission section should have inform us that there were not enough bed in B2 wards and not till we found out ourselves in the ward. I have to put this aside first as my son health is still my primary concern. He spend most of his time sleeping after the second fits after he received the medication.
