The Silver Lining in the Collection of Dark Clouds...

Got smacked by another bout of thick clouds. These moods aren't really kind to any of us, especially Ben. He's been most patient ever and ever ready to help as I try to stay calm and objective. Got news from the eye specialist yesterday that Abby requires a surgery for her stye!!!! It's pure madness. She said that the stye has developed roots, so only a surgery can eliminate the stye. Gosh. And it's not cheap either. Now Abby's gotta put stinging eyedrops every 3 hourly.

Shalom needs yet another round of neubulising although we been doing it almost every 4 hourly round the clock since Wednesday. Sometimes I oversleep and extend to 6 hours instead. Second review on Tuesday. It's tricky - Shalom's every 4 hourly feed, plus 4 hourly neubulisation (1/2hr before and after no food in case of vomiting) PLUS medication 2 or 3 times a day. He's been throwing up EVERY time he takes his medication. Really upsetting. And he screams really well too.

Now swamped with deadlines. School's almost over, just gotta clear the remaining deadlines. I hope I can complete them soon coz my aunt's family is coming to Singapore today. Would love to spend some time with her.

The silver lining:
Spoke to the P of Abby's sat playgroup and found out he's in her new kindy's management committee! (Erhm.. not sure if it's the kindy or the church's). And he said that things are underway (hopefully!), and if God wills, the kindy will be under his mgmt! :D We'd love to put the kids next time at the current school @ Hougang coz we love the climate and teachers there, but due to distance and cost, we had to forgo that option. He kept saying, gotta pray about it! :) Hopefully he'll take over by the time abby goes P1! :)
