Received the 12 ART kits in Tampines.

DS finally caught it (on the plane back from overseas, I suspect). Turned negative today. I haven’t caught it from him though I didnt take special precautions except wash my hands with soap if I touch his mucus-filled tissues. Maybe my bivalent jab doing its job I dunno.


But gosh it has been so tiring nagging him to take his medicines while worrying abt DH delayed elsewhere overseas. Cough is still there.

glad to know your ds is recovering well. As long as symptoms are mild, it will not be too stressful.

Thx. Timing is the best right now actually (school hols). I can’t decide if I myself want to catch it or not - have some gatherings to attend plus my elderly mum wants to meet up too. Better not catch hor.

Hope Zac recovery fully in good time. He’s young, strong & knows no risks in his life yet. Hv to tell him in other form to raise his sensitivities. Not passing to yr mum is one way to raise his sensitivity. That’s how I get mine to cooperate with hygiene & cleanliness. Missing out this season fun is ano way to sensitize him.

Both Zac and you hv one thing less to worry abt with new school term in less then 2 weeks now.

We’re all very careful with hygiene & health esp MIL in her 80s. For now, we’re thankful she have not caught the C, when 99% of the family had one round during the Omicron phase. Not sure if we ever want MIL even to catch any C despite sentiments that it’ll be mild after all the vaccinations.

DH had this persistent cough for last couple of weeks which is still lingering now. No choice. Better we don’t meetup with her than take risks that might compromise her health.

Suddenly, I’ve extra time on hand & had been doing a fair bit of rationalizing what we need, what to giveaway or throw & what CNY meals to prepare.

Have you brought Zac to see doctor? What kind of medicine that he is taking, antibiotics? Beside coughing, any other symptoms? Fatigue? Take more rest and drink more water, no spicy and oily food. Have you DH already taken the bivalent vaccination?

Just cough and runny nose. No fever, no lethargy, no loss of taste or appetite. Generally acting normal except the cough. Didnt see doc but consulted pharmacist when replenishing the medicine. She said no fever no issue, just continue & monitor for any breathlessness.

DH havent taken bivalent. Miss him a lot, finally back in SG tmr. Haven’t seen him in almost 3 weeks.

一日不见，如隔三秋, so it has been 63 秋天了. It is good that he is able to come back for Christmas 🎄. You have to take care yourself too. Both Zac and DH will depend on you. Some of my colleagues are having covid symptoms but their ART test results are still negative and therefore don't 100% trust ART results. Try to sleep early, good night 😴
