And he falls sick

"First of all do you know how to cut nails?" asked the boy to the wife when the question of cutting nails came up. 

There were more...This was when he was in a good mood...
"Acha, Ah and I, we are buying blue Bentley's"
"How will you identify whose is which?", I asked.
"I will park somewhere Ah will park somewhere"

And when he was in a whiny mood...

"Somebody sleep with me"
"Nobody go out of the house"
"I can't stop crying"
"Somebody help me drink milk"
"I don't want to have a bath ever"


Earlier this month, the boy had a prize distribution in school. He also got his class photo.

We went for a lunch at Chinita after that. The boy had quesadillas thinking it was a pizza. He finished them  off.

The following week he fell sick. (In the end it turned out to be a stomach infections that was doing the rounds. Highly likely that he got it from his time at the day care.)

It was a Thursday.

The boy threw up, the wife had to rush to school and he complained of ear pain. We didn't hear from Dr S, so went to the doc nearby. The canal connecting ear and nose had phlegm. The doc suggested steam inhalation, Sinarest and other medicines. 4 of them to be precise!




On Saturday we went to see Dr S. There was a long line and we managed to see him at the last moment. He controlled the stomach infection first.




He had his school annual day that day and wanted to make it any cost. But by afternoon he felt so weak after the trip back from Dr S that he went to sleep. I went and returned his costume. The headmistress was disheartened as the boy loved dancing and he was the central figure. 
He complained of ear pain and Dr S suggested Crocin. In the night he threw up on the quilt. Whatever he ate or drank he threw up. It was mostly phlegm. He was scared to eat or drink. 

The Mucolite course was for 5 days. For 2 days the wife took him to work. His appetite was not back. In fact he refused chocolate cake at a birthday party.
On Wednesday we sent him to school but the boy slept. When be got up he complained of stomach pain. He didn't eat. For dinner after a lot of coaxing he ate an idli. The wife took Thursday and Friday off to be with him. Thanks to her it helped and the boy started getting back to normal. In the night he wanted to go for a walk so I carried him around the apartment. The number of idli's increased, he started eating rice. The bones were still visible though. But the appetite was back.
