Travel with Sick Kids

Since young I have been wander—why holidays always pass so fast?
This suppose was another nice trip…
But the trip started with the news of Min-Li (BIL#2’s 3 years old daughter) got foot, hand and mouth disease. We got to BIL#2’s house on the Sunday morning, waiting for them come back from the clinic and make the move, when they came back BIL#2 told us to keeps the girls away from his Min-Li, because she down with mild FHM disease.
So since they are going to carry on the trip as planned, so what we can do was just be careful about their contact.
Poor Min-Li whole mouth full of ulcers, she wants to eat but too painful to chew and swallow, we all so kesihan to see her like this, let alone her parent.
So plus Annabelle down with flu package, and so as Isabelle on her way to it, I thought this trip must be very stressful.
But turned out all quite OK, except Isabelle was start coughing, and Min-Li couldn’t eat everything but ice-cream.
The first day and second day we didn’t allow the girls go to poolside, we brought them to the sea instead, supposed to let them walk along the shore to get the feel of the seawater, but still ended up socking wet. At first we a bit paranoid afraid their flu might get worst, but “dang!” it actually got better (of cause I brought along their medicine lah), the third day before leaving Cherating, I thought never mind lah, let the girls go to the pool, after all we are going back soon, just let them have some more fun (Isabelle have been doing the swimming move in the room pass few days, so ready to go to swimming).
Go to the sea shore hand in hand.
Now came back two days already, Annabelle fully recovered, and Isabelle still have a bit of cough, of cause the credit go to breastfeeding again (doctor: Wei! My medicines don’t count meh?).
Ya, sometimes I do struggle thinking about to bring or not to bring, to cancel or to continue, if kid is sick. Luckily so far we only travelled once with Ian, and he happened to be sick 1 week BEFORE (stomach upset). Whew! You dont want to carry a son who purge every hour with you, to catch a flight, right?
aiyoo..FHM disease very dangerous ler..is Min-Li ok now?..my SIL’s 1 son kena..then 3 son all kena liao…pity baby kenot have antibiotic..dr said tat kind of antibiotic not suitable for baby wor..lucky now all recover liao..
