life is a blessing

The other day, I was watching Dato Dr Fadhilah Kamsah on TV, discussing an interesting topic, teman sejati. It made me to think, I am so lucky I had one, teman sejati, a true friend. I had a lot of friends, every where and anywhere I've been through out my life. But she is special. She is nothing like me, a totally different person. She is every thing I am not. But the chemistry between us is so strong. And that made us complementing each other. Being different, and thinking differently, yet she sees me and understands me. She knows it when I'm down, or too excited. She knows what to do when I'm sick, or depressed. She knows exactly what I'd like to eat, and what to buy me. She knows what I like, and what I dont. She take me out shopping when ever I feel bad or unhappy...heheheh.... She is there, when I am at the deepest sorrow in my life. She lift up my spirit and support me in her own way. We shared so many things and moments together.. which most of them are the peak years of our life. Normally, she doesnt really show she really care for me.. hahahahah... but I know she do really care..and showing it in her own way. She shows me a lot of life, thought me a lot as well. She is part of my life, a very significant part I guess. 

I was online window shopping with my Mye the other day... (even at different parts of the country,we are still able to shop together!! ahaks, thanks to technology) and we found some cute stiff for kids.. there are some I think really cute......

zahraa learnt new stuff 2-3 days back.. , even having a fever.. she can hold her bottle herself, bringing it to her mouth. She can hold her toys, and also try to bring it to her mouth. She lifted both her legs swaying to the her side, trying to roll i guess..she kicks hard and bend her body when she wanted something or irritated. Just in a week, I am so happy with her. It is a mothers day gift for me, for my first mothers day. On this mothers day, I felt happy, grateful and eager looking forward for many more things to come.

Remember the oter day i wrote about toys?? and I mention my office gave Zahraa a set of toys. So here's the picture. Thank you PDCC.. and oh, abah's office had something for Zahraa too!!! Rm 150 Jusco boucher (more like for mommy, huh..) thanks Intel!!

Its not just a fever at all... actually it is roseola infantum. It looks like measles, but without cough and very high fever. Zahraa had small red spots on her skins after the 4th day of having fever. She had all the simptom, beginning from her diarhea and then fever. The actual thing appears later. So now, I am at home with Zahraa..her nursery wouldnt allow her to come, even the doctor said it is not contagious. For now, there's some medicine she had to take, paracetamol and something to take away the itchiness. I had to put calamine lotion on her body as well. It was caused by a virus and according to Dr Hasanah ( Zahraa's paed) the virus would die on its own and no antibiotic is required.. it sounds rare, this roseola, but it is common actually. It is always be mistaken with measles.

Definition of Roseola infantum

Roseola infantum: Roseola infantum is another name for roseola, also formally called roseola infantilis. The following is a brief rundown on roseola:

Cause: Roseola is caused by a virus called human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) and, possibly, human herpesvirus 7 (HHV-7).

Age range: Roseola is most common in children 6 months to 24 months of age.

Spread: Roseola is spread from person to person, but it is not known how. Roseola is not very contagious.

Initial symptoms: These include a high fever that lasts for 3 to 5 days, runny nose, irritability, eyelid swelling, and tiredness.

The rash: When the fever disappears, a rash appears. The rash is mainly on the face and body.

Course: The rash lasts for about 24 to 48 hours. Roseola usually goes away without any treatment.

Complications of roseola are rare.

Seeing the doctor: A child with fever and rash should be excluded from child care until seen by a physician.

Return to child care: A child with rash and no fever may return to child care.

Because the rash appears so suddenly (right after the fever dramatically departs), the disease is also sometimes called exanthem subitum.

However, some other have more ideas about roseola infantum
