Shannon was hospitalise............

Shannon was hospitalise for 2 days on the 3rd day of CNY. There was red spots appearing on her the lower limbs. Family doctor commented that the spots are not due to insect bites or allergy. It was cause by bleeding underneath the skin. Thus need to send her back to KK A&E. She been to KK A&E a week before that due to high fever at 40.4 degree.

Shannon got her blood drawn for testing and the tube is in place if drip is required. She was send to do the blood test when she was half asleep. We couldn't go into the room to prevent her associating the pain with us. Feel extreme heart pain listerning to her crying and looking at her hand. The red spots spread into patches and her lower limbs started to swell. She complain about the pain and unable to walk.

She enjoy the TV show with the headphone when she is not in pain. The next day she was feeling much much better with the swelling reduce and she was able to walk.

Thank God that her blood and urine test show that there's no complication to her kidneys. The cause of the illness is due to viral infection. She will be going back to KK for a f0llowup appointment on 10/02/09 Tuesday.
