Hunter’s 1st birthday party is tomorrow.. and we’re all packed 🙂 We are staying overnight at the hotel in Sentosa so it will be a mini retreat for us as well! It’s going to be a pool party and so far the weather looks promising.. so I hope everyone has fun 🙂

Things have been particularly manic the past few days, because we’ve been doing the last minute preparations/organisation for his birthday party.. and also cos…. Mum got hospitalised 🙁

She had severe abdominal pain and convulsions overnight and the next day, and we all chalked it up to food poisoning, so didn’t take her to the hospital right away. It wouldn’t go away, so she went to the doctor and got an injection and was diagnosed with “stomach flu”. But then the pain came back with a vengeance and so she ended up in Emergency in the hospital, and turns out she either has intestinal infection, or intestinal adhesions. Both are not great things to have, as you can imagine!! But they are treating her for the former first, with strong doses of antibiotics. If the pain subsides, then that’s fine and she can leave hospital. If the pain is still there/comes back, then it could be adhesions and that means surgery 🙁 We are praying that it doesn’t come to that!

So she has been resting in the hospital for the past 2 nights.. which also means our trip to Malacca over CNY is now cancelled since she’s in no state to travel. So we’ll be spending CNY in Singapore after all! Except we have no restaurant booked for CNY Eve….. *gulp*

What a scare for all of us. A timely reminder to never take good health for granted.
