Joey Is On MC Today

My MIL was telling me that kids who go to childcare for the first time will inevitably fall sick within the first month. I was hoping that strong Joey will be one of those rare ones who will not fall sick, but she did.

We saw it coming. Her super red lips, and very 'sexy' voice. Ya, she almost lost all her voice because she was too heaty and probably not drinking enough water. We reckon the teachers in school won't keep prompting them to drink water unless during the designated water-drinking times. So unless Joey asks for her water bottle herself, she would drink alot less water compared to last time. And with all the new things she's facing everyday, the physical toil and all.

Yesterday at around 6pm when isaiah was on his way to pick up Joey, the teacher called to say that Joey was running a temperature of 37.5 degrees and they are sponging her to cool her down. By the time Isaiah picked her, she was already at 38.2 degrees. Brought her to the doctor, took her meds and she fell asleep at 9 plus. Thank God the meds kicked in immediately and her temperature came down very quickly. I think I almost woke up every hour last night, and she was alright till this morning around 5am when the temperature came up a little again. So today, she's at home with my MIL, and officially on her first MC from school.

Pray that Joey will recover fully today and can be back at school tomorrow!
