My dear little Yuxin is sick for the pass few days. She started to have fever on Monday morning. I had brought her to visit doctor on Tuesday and hope that she can get well within 2-3 days. Unfortunately, she has recovered from her fever yesterday but her running nose and cough get worsen. So I brought her to see doctor again. Previously, she has to take 3 medicines but today is 5!!!
Why am I making such a fuss over Yuxin's medicines? It is because she has inherent one of her parents 'fine gene'. (I don't tell you who...) She is so scared of taking medicine!!! There was one time I asked her either you eat medicine or take painful injection and her answer is to take injection. I know that she may not know exactly or may has already forgotten what is injection like but my reaction is "Huh?? You want injection??". Deep in my heart I said "Oh Dear! Don't be like ......"
Well, here are some of Yuxin's reaction so as to avoid taking medicines...
(1) Run away.
(2) Cry loudly with big big tear drops.
(3) Ask me to carry her to walk around.
(4) Hug me or papa tightly like a koala bear with her mouth attached tightly to our shoulders.
(5) Ask for help. Depend on whoever is at home.
(6) Say "I want water" and keep drinking water from her water bottle non-stop so that I cannot feed her medicine.
(7) If I caught hold of her, she will struggle like hell. You are like watching WWF (wrestling) because I have to use my "scissor legs" to hold her down.
Sometimes it is like nightmares feeding Yuxin medicines but sometimes she is ok. Now everytime she finishes her medicine the whole family will cheers and clap hands for her "great achievement".

build up her immune health with kids supplement. usually they come in "sweets", colorful drinks, or interesting shapes which can attract them. then she can avoid doc/medicine/injection
Hope Yuxin recover soon... Auntie Cindy sayang!
