It had been a crazy week. It started off with Mal having poor appetite which was quite unusual especially if I cooked his favourite dishes. We soon found out he was actually feeling unwell as he started to have mild diarrhea and vomitted out his milk on one occasion. This was followed by a few days of fever and he sure freaked us out when his fever hit an all time high of 40 plus degree. We started off feeding him cherry flavoured Tylenol but he hated the sweet cherry taste, so we switched to the grape flavoured Motrin, still it did not help, he refused to drink his medicine. It was a battle of crying and screaming and shouting when it comes to medicine time. It didn’t help when his fever refused to subside even after we gave him the stronger fever medication. It was the 1st time Mal had the fever medication from his anus. This time, we did not bring him to the doctor and on the 5th day, his fever eventually subsided. His body had won the battle over the virus.
