Incidents

Trapped in a jam right outside the UMMC. Half an hour's traffic light just to get into hospital grounds. Grrr...


A brother trying to register his sister at the psychiatric clinic, of which he mentioned that his sister purposely flushed the cards and her meds down the toilet bowl so she does not have to visit the doctor.


An inconsiderate idiot saying out loud to his girlfriends while staring and laughing at those psychiatric patients seeking medical treatment in the clinic.


Saw a prisoner in handcuffed hand-in hand- with two other prisoner wardens and three more wardens accompanying at the UMMC pharmacy.


My mom asking the psychiatrist to check her dictionary properly when the doc referred to her medicinal dic to confirm the symptoms.

Never feeling well

Mom was feeling very sick the whole of yesterday. The moment I woke up, she said she had pre-menstrual like syndrome. Next, she says her bladder is so full sometimes a cough or sneeze would make her have a little accident, which didn't really take place as she got to toilet on time. Next, her acid reflux came and she was like "I can't breathe.. I can't breathe..."

I told her I can't do shits because the doctors here, those that she sees don't work on weekends and there is NO ABSOLUTELY way I am bringing her to the hospital again, to the emergency section and they admit her and only on Monday where the doc will come do his rounds and check on her. So it is definitely a waste of money to place her in the hospital whereas she can stay home and go tomorrow early in the morning.

I told her nothing is ever going to happen to her even though she feels as if she cant breathe because it has happened so many times when her acid reflux strike and she is always much more drama about it. The more you show concern, the more she drama so I rather not do it.. although I am kinda worried. She seems to be better today tho. Hopefully it stays like that till tomorrow.

She said she had been having constipation for quite a few days already. So last night, I went to the local grocery store and got her bananas. She told me this morning, she finally could do her daily 'business'. Well, I was so tempted to buy other fruits but since she has no teeth now, she had them all pulled out in Penang due to wanting to make a whole new two row artificial teeth.

Anyway, I have to bring her over to the hospital tomorrow to see her psychiatrist and asked about those side-effect symptoms she is suffering from and is it because of her drugs? *sigh* I sure hope it is so it means there are no other medical problems then...

Jaden's milestones @ 16 months 2 weeks



Physical
He can stand on his own IF HE WANTS TO which he CHOOSES NOT TO. He prefers to hold on to stuff for support but we have caught him a few times standing without support. He definitely knows how to balance himself standing straight but I guess he is still not confident enough on hard ground.

He can walk. No wait.. he prefers to run although he has yet to perfect the art of balancing each step he takes and he will only walk without support when hes on the bed. On soft ground. I wonder when is he going to start walking on hard ground. I can't wait to buy him shoes.

He loves to play rough with his father. They have their own special bonding time before bedtime where these two boys of mine will try to outdo each other in terms of either wrestling one another down, playing boo-chak with blankie, biting or using the botak one as a support to pull himself up and simply try to run around the bed.

He loves bathtime. He can actually sit and lie in his bathtub like what adults do when they are relaxing in hot baths. *sigh*

He loves to watch his Sesame street or any singsong cartoons, advertisements with pretty girls or children. he is a TV addict.. I know its bad but it really does help keep Hubby and I undisturbed while we are both busy with work.

He loves to look at girls. Trust me, he loves pretty girls.. pretty ones! He can follow them from left to right until out of sight. Hes a boy alright! The SimonYap gene is there..


Food

He drinks formula milk twice a day -morning and night. 240ml/260ml per feed.
He likes to eat our food although we refrain from giving him those that has too much sugar or salt, hot and spicy or fried.
Sometimes if he is too lazy to chew, he will then just munch and munch in his mouth till the food goes bland and he will spit them out!


Words
Da-deesh
Mam mam
Eh?
Yeshhh
He shrieks like a chicken kena slaughter in times of tantrum throwing resulting in me whacking him.

Jaden understands simple instructions like No, Come here and Carry but for the first two instructions, he, sometimes being the cheeky monkey would do opposite.

He knows how to clap hands, open close, twinkle twinkle little star, spin the hands but he chooses not to when we ask him to. He will only do it if he thinks he is doing it on his own without being asked and he will give a very smug look after.

Jaden is growing up so fast... anyway here is a video of him enjoying some quality time with me back home before his bathtime.. hope you like it as much as I do. =)







I am so tired

Everytime she opens her mouth to start a conversation.. it always goes like this..

"Wo hen sien.. chen ke sen di toh hen sien"

Its not as if she is bored or what.. okay, maybe she is bored but she can't sit still and watch TV. Watching TV or movies will probably make her start to imply herself into all these characters. She then think the TV is telling her life story and she gets so worked up.

Taking her out is like taking a newborn out without feeding him first or taking food there.. and you have to come home once you reach. She can't stand the cold now, the wind or whatsoever and she gets tired easily.

So, she prefers to stay home and then, like the whole afternoon today, lie down and do nothing.. so that is when the idle mind of hers starts to think nonsense such as she has got lots of diseases la, shes worried about dunno what!!! Its endless what she is capable of thinking but being who I am, I refuse to entertain her complaints as it sure will prompt her to do more of these nonsense.

I rather be strict in my dealings with her complaints and choose to ignore all those nonsensical stuff she says. It definitely did help her bucked up and stop complaining and feeling all those fatigueness back then before she went home to Penang. *sigh*

I wonder if these are also the long term side effects of the drugs she is taking. Got to set up an appointment with the clinic soon to see how it goes. Guess I have to ask Aunt Lin to help babysit Jaden for a few hours then...

Irresponsibility and consequences

I am pretty angry at my dad right now. I handed my mother over to him in good condition where everybody that sees her think she looks so much better compared to her 'mad' days alone in Penang.

I knew trouble will come that she's gone back home for the whole month, of which my father is only home 2days a week. FCK THAT SHIT! She needs constant daily monitoring and that is the part which my father fails.

Now she came back 'damaged' again and its like going back to square one with more health problems she assumes she is suffering from. I am so fucking angry.. so irresponsible..

This all happened because of you and your family.. this happened because you weren't by her side like all husbands are! DAMNIT! This all happened because you and other bunch of idiots pressured her unneccesarily.

My parents decided to take a bus down to KL last night. My mother is back at my place again. This time she has no teeth, even Jaden has got more teeth than her. Planning her meals is going to be quite a challenge but well, I can always make the rice softer or stew stuff that goes soft easily and melts in the mouth for her. Porridge is not a problem too, cause Jaden is having porridge almost daily. Before you go asking why no teeth, well, over the one month she was back in Penang, she went to the dentist to have all her teeth pulled out so she can make articificial ones. Her teeth was already rotting due to poor oral hygiene in her younger days, now it is too late for any repairs so might as well she thought...

Iz and Grace came over yesterday afternoon too to my place. They were hoping that their CD installer could be installed in Hubby's computer but it just won't work, too so both of them had to head down to Cheras to another friend's place to see if they get lucky in getting the software to work. Poor things. Having lack of sleep over such tedious work, like Hubby commented, overworked and underpaid. These people are doing charity wey! Had a good laugh over their first freelance job experience since they came back from London. o.Oh, that reminds me to ask Gynnette something! Better ask fast now March is drawing near...

Called my sister yesterday to catch up on her little 6-month-old munchkin. Howard has yet to flip himself over yet. Sis says he must either be too fat or just a potato, which she was kidding of course.. but you know la, how all these Mandarin conversation will take place between two sisters. I don't know why but I feel rather excited for her that her little boy is going through the growing up process, which reminded me of those days back last year... when Jaden was just 6 months old. Howard has already 2 teeth sprouted out at 6 months old. Jaden only got his first tooth when he turned 9 months old. *sigh* As long as they are healthy, thats what Hubby and I always say. As long as the baby is healthy, nothing else really matters.

Okay, I hear my parents coming back from breakfast now. Got to fetch dad to the bus station.. toodles
