"Antz..Antz"

Last night around 3 am, Anders suddenly woke up and cried "Antz..Antz".

I thought he was dreaming, so i woke up and sat beside him and checked his bedsheet. Then i hold him to stop his cryings. I felt that he was very "hot". Immediate reaction was to check his temperature - 38.8 Degrees. I was shocked because prior to sleeping, he was still playing with Anthea, no sigh of any sickness.

So i fed him with paracetemol and then sponged him. I dared not sleep a bit. The focus was to bring his temperature down. He was still talking to me while i sponged him. Then slowly the temperature went down to about 37.6 degrees.

This morning, after bringing Anthea to childcare, i broughts Anders to the doctor. He was diagonsed to have Tonsillitis and was given 2 days of MC. His medication consisted of Paracetemol and Antibiotics to 'kill' the bacteria . (I guessed we had been allowing him too much french fries which may had trigger the tonsil.)

After medication, his temperature reading is at 37 degrees. I am keeping my guard on because from past experienced, the temperature will be erratic, especially in the night.

So far his appetite and activity levels are normal. Hopefully with another day of good rest and medication. Anders can recover fully.
