Wesley started having a fever on Thursday evening. Raymond had his company D&D while I had a promotion treat dinner at Shangri-La The Line on the same evening. We did not rush back to bring him to doc as my brother said his fever was not that high. When we fetched him home that night, he looked tired but not that feverish. I gave him paracetemol and he slept throughout the night. Decided that he would not attend school on Friday. He missed the National Day celeb at school though. He appeared ok on Friday but by evening, his fever shot up to more than 39 degrees. Quickly brought him to doc and this time round, he was given antibiotics as his throat was very red.
That night, at around midnight, he suddenly woke up from his sleep and said /do things that does not quite like him. He told my husband, " you sleep on the bed, I sleep on the floor". He then rushed to my bed and said " I sleep here, you (ie me) sleep next to me and papa sleep on my bed". He seemed to be very anxious and we tried very hard to calm him down. We were not sure if he had a nightmare but this happened again 2 hours later. According to my husband, he was feverishly writing numbers on the bed. The next day in the afternoon, he again woke up from his sleep and asked for a paper and pen. He wrote some numbers and asked me" what is 4 divide by 3?" I had to calm him down again before he fell asleep. These incidences really scared me and my husband. Is it due to the fever that made him delirious or stress? I even wondered if it was a side effect of the medicine although these are common medicine which he has taken before.
He's ok now and even attended a Wii party at his friend's house yesterday. I sure hope this is a one-off thing.
Haiz, Wes' bug is now passed to Sophia and she is having fever. I hope she recovers soon.
