H1N1 n Baby Rayyan

Recently I’m neglecting my past time hobby to update my blog, it been a while I didn’t touch by blog our transfer any picture from my camera n iphone. Kinda feel a bit lonely for not sharing stories and news with my virtual friends.

Last week, my SNS friends emailed me and ask me why I didn’t update any news on my blog. I replied her email and said that I was busy taking care Baby Rayyan and the stories goes….

Later on 20/01/2010, on my 2nd wedding anniversary, I got a phone called from my mom saying that my father was admitted to Price Court Kuala Lumpur. He had +ve influenza A. Do not know where he got it but historically he had respitory problem and this somehow will lead to influenza A +ve. Then my mom urge us the whole family to go to the hospital and took the influenza A test but me, hubby and Baby Rayyan denied to do the test because we didn’t feel sick at all. Baby Rayyan look normal with his routine activity and look that he’s going to have his first theeth to came out. So we just take precautions to have clean bedroom, pruified air, make sure our body tempreture didn’t exceed 37.5 celcius.

Then a few days past by and I was told again by my mom that my father is H1N1 +ve. I was so shocked and worried had defeat what I hoping is not true. After work, I rushed to home and checked Baby Rayyan condition and his body tempreture. Everything is normal. His eating and drinking milk also normal. Nothing to worried. I’m quite relief but still worries has conquer my heart.

On sunday 24/01/2001, the day Baby Rayyan turned to 8th month…after come back from work. His nanny told me that Baby Rayyan not feeling very well. His body temp raised up and his eating not that good. Me and hubby rushed to checked his body temp with 3 different device. The body temp is showing 38.5 celcius. My hubby suddenly took Baby Rayyan progressive syrup and gave him just to cool down the temp. We rushed to emergency ward in Tawakal Hospital and when the MO checked again his fever it was 36. Luckily that my hubby fast action to feed Baby Rayyan with progressive syrup works! The MO done the influenza A and Baby Rayyan +ve. She said there’s nothing to be worried because many things can be influenza A. H1N1 is a part of inlfuenza A that is very dangerous and if not treating earlier it can lead to death. She asked us to come tomorrow to specialist and refer to Baby Rayyan pedi, Dr.Kishore for further action. She advice us to monitor every 2 hours Baby Rayyan body temp and keep feeding the progressive syrup every 4 hours.

We took him home and both of us took emergency leave for 2 days temp on that particular time. On 25/01/2010, early in the morning we went to see his pedi. My hubby went first to register Baby Rayyan since Baby Rayyan +ve influenza A, we need to take precautions step not to infected other babies and childrens. After waiting 20 minutes in the car, we went to see Dr. Kishore and told him what happen. He took Baby Rayyan mucus from nose to make test whether Baby Rayyan +ve H1N1 or not. So far, his advice is not to worry because Baby Rayyan did not show any of the symptons. He said that he have looked far more worst cases than this. H1N1 is a normal virus when u treated the patient correct at earlier stage. Sometimes people did not realize that they carried the virus, because of their immune system strong the fever will healed itself. But when it got infected with another person that immune system is low, the person B will definately having all the symptons and if not treated earlier and well, the person B will die.

After mucus sample took from Baby Rayyan, the things will be send to the lab in Selangor Medical Centre to do the test. It will took at least 1 day to know the result. People who is in danger and prune to get the risk will get priority to have their mucus to be tested first. These group of peoples will includes patient with respitory problem, babies below 1 year old, old person, pregnant women and patient with diabetist and high blood.

His pedi told us not to worry and advise us to checked and monitored his body temp. If his body temp raise, immediately get him into emergency wad. By the mean time, he will followed up with Selangor Medical Centre and try to get the result asap. So we went back to home with prayer that Baby Rayyan will have -ve result on it. Baby Rayyan done his normal routine and at 6 pm, on his 2 hours daily checked body temp, his body temp raise up to 38.5. Both of us panic and we immediately called his pedi office and told the pedi what the next step. Is it we remain at home or immediately send him to emergency ward.

His pedi told us that he will arranged everything and called Selangor Medical Centre immediately for his result. Because without a confirmation of H1N1 test, he cannot suddenly gave any type of treatment. Both treatment will danger our son life. After an hour past by, his pedi called and told us that Baby Rayyan is +ve H1N1. Both of us feel so sad and deeprest. The only hope and pray to God is to save him and don’t take him away from us. We want to spend more time with him. His is our symbol of love, strengths, courage and have brighten every single person who live in this house.

I went to our audio room, looking at my mom playing Super Mario, laughing and slowly I said that Baby Rayyan was diagnosed H1N1 +ve. My mom put down wii controller and asked everybody to get bath and clean themselves because all of us having a lot of contact with Baby Rayyan. I know my mom really upset about this news because she loves Baby Rayyan so much. My father was quarantine inside his room. Only heard the news when my mom suddenly ran into the room and told him. Both of them quite panic because Baby Rayyan still small and he got all the troubles in this world. He started to become grumpy because of the fever and want to get near me or hubby.

Hearing sad news, I gather all the courage and strengths that fallen into piece, packed Baby Rayyan clothes while my hubby still on the phone with Baby Rayyan pedi. He will arrange all hospital arrangement, treatment and everything that he can do to save my child. My hubby put down the phone and hug me and said that everything will be ok and this is another GOD test to us. The see whether we are strong enough and valuable enough to be in HIS eyes and loves.

Dr Kishore called half n hour and saying all the room in Tawakal is packed up. As H1N1 patient and quarantine people, we need to have a single room that can feed 3 of us. So we called every hospital under Prudential Insurance list and we got SJMC. They have vip room at the moment and the next day they will transfer us to single room. Either can be done actually because we pay Baby Rayyan premium quite high. His entitled for 1 single room for admission and will get up to RM200 allowance per day. We did called Pantai Medical Centre and was told that without their general physicians report they cannot admit us! My hubby yelled at them and say !@#$% word! Hello, my son is having H1N1 and you said we cannot received ur son because there is no report from their general physcians. I really get frusted on their services!

My sister called every hospital in town n try to arranged accomodation for us and Baby Rayyan for admission. While my sister called and confirmed the hospital, my, hubby and Baby Rayyan went straight to Tawakal Hospital emergency ward as instructed by his pedi. We reached there and there’s a lot of people seeking for treatment also. My hubby went to see Dr.Kishore to have the report and emergency ward in Tawakal Hospital advice us to go straight to SJMC since they can provide the treatment more faster than them. Because if Baby Rayyan admitted in emergency ward, the treatment will be temp and I still need to move to another hospital.

So we drove our car to SJMC and called to confirmed our admission. They confirmed. While driving at Federal Highway, my sister called and said that Damansara Specialist can accept us. I prefer to have Damansara Specialist since it is near to my aunt home and our home. So anything we can called or go back easily. So I make a turn to Damansara Specialist and heading straight to Emergency Ward. As usual, damansara specialist emergency ward is super duper crowded and most of the patient is children. They are coughing and sneezing all the way. We try to calm down Baby Rayyan n talked to him. His mood a bit swing but he still laugh and try to replied us in his baby talked.

The admission process took way too long untill Baby Rayyan poo poo in his night pyjamas. One thing with Baby Rayyan, if he poo poo or extra pee his want his diaper to be change immediately. So he become more grumpy than ever but still can smile and play with us. About 1 hour standing at emergency ward we were direct to Premier Suite floor to our quarantine room. The room is nice and spacious for 3 of us. Sadly, no one can visit us or send any gift or flower to us.

We spend 4 days and 3 nites in our Premier Suites room playing with Baby Rayyan and really resting ourselves. Actually not really resting but ‘layan’ Baby Rayyan. On the third day, Baby Rayyan feeled so bored and grumpy again because he rarely go out to played. Just imagine, 3 days we were in the room nothing to see or do. Doctor prohibited Baby Rayyan to go out, because of H1N1. Me and Hubby sometimes we sneak out to buy food or to take fresh air. Luckily the room is big enough to give Baby Rayyan crawling from door to window.

I forgot to tell you guys, that Baby Rayyan able to sit himself and to pre-crawled when he got admitted into the hospital.

The best thing that, he become everyone fav including the visitor who came to see their relatives. We break the rules and allowed Baby Rayyan to have his lunch and dinner outside the room but stay at the Premier Suites Lounge only. No one believe that this handsome young boy got infected with H1N1 because he didn’t showed any symptons. Unlike the two rooms nearby our room where occupied with kids having really high fever. They seem really grumpy and their nanny having so much trouble to feed them. But not Baby Rayyan, he finished a bowl of his Heinz rice mix with mash vege and also drink plenty of warm water.

On third day evening, his doctor (Dato Dr Musa) came to checked him and took our mucus sample. Seriously guys, really pain in the ass when the doctor took our mucus sample. Now I know why Baby Rayyan hate to do the test for twice in the row. After checking 3 of us condition, the doctor said that if parents is -ve, we can packed our bag tomorrow and just quarantine ourselves at home.

Thank God. Alhamdullilah. Me n hubby really happy with this news. We cant bare anymore for any bad news.  Next week, we will off to our road trip to east coast with Baby Rayyan. Let all the bad luck behind and have a new luck ahead.

Later in the evening while feeding Baby Rayyan his dinner, one of the nurse came by and tell us the result. Alhamdullilah, both of us -ve. I think mentally we need to be strong, when our mental and spirit is strong, definately any illness is hard to get. Applause to Baby Rayyan because he safely survived from this illness.

4th day morning, doctor came by to have his last visit on Baby Rayyan. He congratulated Baby Rayyan to be very brave and strong. Baby Rayyan smile and feel so happy. So we packed our things and hubby settled the bill. Luckily again that we tooked Baby Rayyan insurance earlier. His bill was 90% covered by Prudential. We just paid balance from the room charges because he only entitled for RM250nett per day for room. We don’t mind to paid extra as long as Baby Rayyan in a pink of health.

We spend our time for 3 days more at home quaratine ourselves. Me played our new wii. Finished 6 stage Resident Evil. Baby Rayyan mastered him crawling, pre-walk also and teeth showing.
