Daddy had chicken pox on the 3rd day after my 1 month old birthday. He looks really awful and tired. Mummy was very worried and she wanted us to quickly evacuate our home at Sengkang to stay with Ah Yee Julie. Daddy look kind of sad as he watched us leave but Mummy said we had to go.
I felt restless, I didn’t get to see Daddy as Mummy said he still had not recovered. I think I was getting insomnia, Mummy had to carry me and walk around the house before I could finally fall asleep. One Wednesday morning after a week of stay at Ah Yee Julie’s place, I woke up with a “pimple” on my cheek. Mummy looked worried, she told Lao Kou that I had a rash that looked like pimple. Mummy also notice my head got some more pimples. Night came but the pimples did not diminish, instead they seemed to have multiplied. Mummy again complained to Ah Yee Julie that the pimples look awful, she wanted to bring me to see doctor.
Finally, they rushed me down to see the doctor and luckily enough the clinic happened to be open that Wednesday night. Doctor diagnoised me to have Chicken Pox, just like daddy. Both Ah Yee Julie and Mummy were stunned! What follows after that really sucks as I had to drink some weird liquids few times a day and some had to complete the entire course.
Everybody was kind of busy with me and nobody took pictures of me anymore. Mummy said I don’t look handsome because the pimple on my cheek had now grown to be of giant size. I cried…………..because that was all I know how to do.
After another week of endurance, I finally recovered. Yay!!!
The above is a picture of me being finally reunited with my daddy and an end to our Chicken Pox Days.
