Alahai Taufiq...

You might be wondering why I've been 'snoozing' all this while.

Well, truth be told I've been rather busy lately handling some 'errands'. These 'errands' have sometihing to do with my lil' tot, Taufiq. And it's going to and fro to the Hospital Besar Tawau.

I've been nearly out of my mind with worry these last two weeks. Couldn't sleep, loss of appetite, serangan penyakit M=Malas... Hai....

Last Thursday and Friday Taufiq had to go to the hospital to get ultra-scanned and x-rayed. It still makes me sad and worried to think that at such a young age my kid has to lie beneath that monstrous machine to be x-rayed. His wailings still echoes hauntingly in my sleep. Sigh.

Like I said in my earlier post, his 'glands' were swelled. Turns out he didn't just have two on his neck but eight- his armpits, hips, and behind his head. Two at each place. Everytime he's sick, especially when he has a cough, those glands or lumps swells about twice its size. Under normal circumstances they're small and hardly noticeble but when he's not feeling well they're as big as a ten-cent coin. The first time he checked at the hospital the doctor scratched her head in puzzlement. In the end Taufiq had to see the specialist. Even he scratched his head and said he never seen so much nodul glands (or such words) on a baby.

Next Thursday we'll be waiting for the result. Meanwhile, his momma's tak keruan memikirkan si anak yang benjolnya pelik-pelik belaka. Hai.......
