first week of school, immunizations, YM
It had been a distressing week for MaRey in school. One of her good friend and classmate, with his family, figured in a horrible accident in NLEX on their way to Manila from La Union, to send off their son who lives the school dorm in the school. MaRey was first very upset because news was that his friend was also in a critical condition. It turns out his friend was the luckiest as we learned when we visited the hospital monday. The mum died immediately, the dad was badly battered and almost lost his leg and still critical, the sister, she died three days later, never having woken up from being comatose and a cousin had a slight blood clot on his brain. The sister, a college freshman, was a dormate of my niece last year in Baguio. It was just so sad, our thoughts and prayers were with the family the whole week and maybe for a wee bit longer. It will take a while for the family to get healed , we pray that God be with them and help them cope.

Well that was hard to write. I had a good mind to just skip and delete the whole paragraph, but my daughter, she's a good friend and she was a real trooper sympathizing with her friend...I hope they continue to let the son study in Manila.

So the second, MeyMey, aside from the fact that she feels unfairly treated as she has no girl classmate from her last year's class and her bones ache from basketball drills of PE-- she seemed all hunky dory.
====
Now ReyMey, he asked MeyMey to teach him to login at yahoo messenger and he had been having a blast pestering and harassing his cousins in China and in Marikina with most all the audibles and laughing and posing at the web cam--- grabe those audibles , it's just too much-- hey sexy, you look like my ex GF my dead ex-GF, guffaws etc. It hangs the PC's all-around. Now, I need to find me a cyber nanny.
Last Friday I took him to our pedia as he had mouth sores a week now, turns out he has stomatitis and they gave him mycostatin for it. Since he didn't have any other ills and we were in the doctor anyway... it's immunization time. I asked what jabs needed to be done and he had 2 -- for the pneumonia (flu vaccine) which is yearly and he also got for Meningo. (Lets not forget June 8 '07, repeat after 5 years).
He is also due for a booster MMR. He should have had it years ago but I keep putting it off . I will get it done within the year. ReyMey had the first MMR when he was 15 months, and then all hell broke loose about it causing autism on the internet and then he got diagnosed 7 mos after. To be honest, after the news broke, for succeeding nephews and nieces I begged their parents to delay the shot, give it when they are two (2) and not 15 mos or 18 mos. Mind you I did not ask them to not give, just delay, Measles kills, I had mumps the normal way, I got infected, but complications can be had ... I'm a believer in vaccines, it is needed for everybody's safety. He has also been jabbed for Hepa A and Hepa B and chicken pox vaccines.
It's just that a few years back he really hated injections and screamed and squirmed to high heavens. It's difficult and near impossible to pin down a boy in a state of panic. It started because a few years back, he had a very nasty ear infection that when cultured was positive for aeruginosa psudonomas , very mean bugger, it needed mean antibiotics injected daily. The year after another infection that created a big lump of pus on his arm that needed minor surgery (small incision) for to be drained. Screams like "help, somebody help me", "what are you doing to me, mum help me", "No" -- Hence we had to declare a hiatus with injections until he forgot the trauma. Now he's cool with it he learned in school that immunizations prevent diseases from spreading.
I asked about that HPV jabs for female teenagers that will help prevent ovarian cancer. OMG the pedia said it cost pesos 7000 a jab !!! and I have two girls :-( Very expensive but it needs to be done so I'll start saving for it-- at least I can tell them to delay having sex yet maybe for another year -- yippee.
as for me, I just found out that the backup CD of our digital photos since 2000-2004 was not readable. Ngek! So I resurrected my old Win98 laptop and searched for photos so I can press another CD. The upside of this is that--- my children, they have grown up so beautifully it was a delight to see it all again. So since ReyMey has no piano recital this year owing to family problems of our piano teacher made it impossible, I have decided to do a slideshow of the photos to post on you tube, spanning 7 years.
Mayhaps. :-)
Let's see if this works
