8 Month

Go Back to Hometown
Daddy Cuddle

After we were discharged from the hospital we returned, the village (Sabah). I feel very comfortable in my parents house. Stress and anxiety have recovered slightly although still afraid to face the days to come. I have explained my child's situation to my parents and their reaction is always positive and told me "Do not worry he's just taking the time and he will do it"

When we were still in Johor, stress and anxiety came like rapid-fire. Since I became active in the study of Hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy and to know in detail about it, makes me nervous and sometimes I sobbed like a baby. Feelings of intense fear, feeling lost direction, feelings of wonder "what should I do to help him?" "Oh I have to do this, do that!" "Why like this?" "Who will help me?". Too much on my mind.


In the village, My mother and father made ​​me comfortable and less worried. For now, Carl can roll to the left only, but since he started taking Epilim, I found he was less rolling. the positive is that he tries to bottle feeding.
Tomme Tippy Bottle

Things that make us happy:


Eating Durian


Eating boiled cassava


The bath that can be supported when he lay down to being bathed



About an appointment at the Hospital Women and Children in Sabah, Likas. Not good at all, I was told that the delay development, such as control of the head and body caused brain damage. I actually know already what the doctor will explain as I have already made ​​a study about it and I ask your doctor to give my child the therapy, but he shook his head and still explain me the same thing. Stupid doctor!. I was asked to wait outside the room waiting for a letter of reference for the Hospital Sultan Ismail as we will change the hospital.
I only got two letters of reference and it is so simple.  : (
