Every cloud has a silver lining....

Ayra is unwell. She started off with the flu which progressed to fever. Yesterday, she had diarohea and there was blood in her stools. The doctor put us on standby and told us to go to the hospital if it got worse. Both she and I haven't had that much to sleep the past few nights. She's rather weak now but recovering slowly.

Still, every cloud has a silver lining. As she was suffering so much, we finally coaxed her into doing the impossible. Eat her medicine! We've been trying for 2 years now to get her to eat medicine. We've had to resort to the trusty suppository whenever she had fever and when it wasn't fever, just gave her lots of liquids and prayed hard. We even tried to force medicine down her throat and she will just throw it all up. Last night though, she relented and we managed to spoon down 3 types of medicine. Hooray!

She's resting now. I do hope she will be her cheerful, active self soon. As for Fuddin, he's having his day nap too. Thank God he's healthy now. He's running around more than usual and eating more too. He definitely is a growing boy. Here are some pics of ill Ayra and healthy Fuddin.
