Knight Kyron's 24 (25) months check up

Knight Kyron went to dr for his 24 months check up (he's 25 months old).
He weighed 28 lbs and 12oz.
His heights - 36 1/2 inches tall
Dr checked all his developmental milestones. He noticed his spoken language delay (he should be able to speak 2-3 sentences. He said it is very common for Children of Deaf Adults (CODA). He signs ASL (American Sign Language). There is nothing to be alarm about it. It is very common! I rather to have Kyron to signs first for his intellegence and be able to communication with us. Kyron can speak some words but not into sentences - maybe 1 sentence.
He will go child care this fall with other hearing kids and teachers while we go work. He will pick up from there. This week, I will take Kyron to visit that child care center. Mikaela went there for a year and few months. She loved it there. They have a wonderful curriculum/program for young children. Hollie and I agreed to put Kyron in and pray that he will like it as much as Mikaela. :o)

Trip to ER again...

Yesterday, we had to take Kyron to ER! Urgh! He couldn't keep anything down - all he do is vomiting all day long. Everytime he drinks - it comes out! I had changed my clothes 5 times! I told H that I must cancel the class today. She said she will take care of K and let me go to teaching class. I told her that I think we are taking him to ER! He is dehydrated! Hollie came home early from work. I called doctor and of course he sent us to ER!

Hello ER again! Here Kyron needs your treatment! Doctor gave him a strong medicine to help him to stop vomiting - zophren. We had to stay there for almost an hour to make sure he doesn't throw up again. We stayed there from 2:30pm to 8:30pm!

Kyron was so sleepy and he wasn't active at all- all morning and afternoon. All he wants to laydown on the floor or couch (anywhere even on bathroom floor). Threw up everywhere! Now I have to call carpet shampooing to come!

Around 8pm, he started to complained that he wants FOOD! Thats when I knew he's ok! He started to be silly boy. I was worried that it might be a side effect from the medication. I asked doctor through interpreter. He replied - no it was not from side effect to make him silly... He's back to old himself again... YES!!! but he couldn't have any food til tomorrow which is today - based on BRAT! haha Who would follow doctor's order? haha...

Now he is active boy again with low grade fever which is ok by me!

My charming prince!

Ouch, Poor my K

Yesterday, I was working (on call dorm assist. for HS girls dorm).


H: Get on VP now! (videophone)


H: Emergency


H: K bleeding bad


(T was busy writing pass for a student to go tutor center - finally checked my aim)


T: Calling you now


T: It is RINGING!


H: MEET me HOSPITAL


T: What?? WHERE?


H: Kyron bleeding (show me k)


T: OK OK - MEET you there at AAMC!





(I ran to other staffs to inform them that I need to go...) I actually ran to the car parking lot - its a long run! AS soon as i arrived the car - I need an oxygen tank to breathe. Oh boy... I don't drive fast. (K-sh sh). I had to speed a little.





During that time, H and I kept touch through emails from our pager. She was telling me that K was looking out the window and saying mommy mommy. Poor my boy.. I had to rush a little!





Finally, I arrived - K was reached out to me. My boy! Oh no! What happened? His mouth was so SWOLLEN! I looked inside - Ouch - laceration! Ya know the waiting room - always take forever! K kept on holding on me - refused to let me go.





After a while, nurse finally called us! He was seen doctor. K hate it! He was sleeping and had to wake him up. That p*ssed him more. Doctor said - Good news! Laceration is closing itself and doesnt need stitches.





Went home. K was slept all the way so M too.





Now he looks so different! His face! not normal! so swollen lip. As for this moment, he is playing with his trains.











Whew... I'm glad he is ok. I know it will not his first or last! Waaahhh WWWaaaaahhh





:::Updated:::


Need to go DR office. Because K's laceration is NOT closed and dr wanted to check it looks deep - 1 cm deep. K had been touching a lot and saying hurt. (I'm pretty sure its not hurt - just uncomfortable but rather to have him check) URGH!!!! K has a dr appt tmr. I'm about to lost my mind! So many things to do at one time!

Flu Shot appointment lead to other...

Flu Shot scheduled ended up getting the appointment turned the table around!!!

Today, our kids were scheduled to have flu shot. First of all, Mikaela turned 5 and need to have "5" years old check up. Dr. D checked Mikaela and Everything looks good! Dr. D looked at Kyron and looked puzzled. She asked me - how long did Kyron have cold? I said - since Friday. She asked - any fever? I said once - Saturday night (Sunday early early morning). She said ok... then took her stethoscope on him. She stood up and said - I'm going to get nebulizer for him. (In my mind - WHAT??? WHAT is she saying?? Nebulizer - a breathing treatment for my BOY! - F**K! Something is not right!!) Nurse came and said - he will be needing breathing treatment immediately as he is dealing with severe wheezing. (Of course as a mother - would say yes - sure anything to make my boy feel better - I was worried!) He ended up having to take breathing treatment. He wasn’t happy at all but cooperated. After 10 minutes later, Dr. D came and checked on him and said – I’m not satisfied and he will need one more breathing treatment. He is still wheezing. (In my mind – you gotta be kidding!!) . He took it again! He cooperated – bless his heart! Finally Dr. D checked and said – much better! Finally we can go home! We were suppose to be there for Kyron to get a flu shot but ended up with breathing treatments.
Dr D wrote a note to me saying – NO FLU SHOT TODAY for Kyron – just Mikaela and she will need varivax (sp?) also. Kyron will have to continue aubuterol medicine by taking breathing treatment for every 3 hours today and tomorrow – every 4 hours as well will need to take pulmicort in the afternoon (one time a day) then every 6 hours on Wednesday. Plus antibodic ( I forgot what it is. as Hollie took Rx to get medicine).

The whole scene sure brought my memories BACK! When Mikaela was only 13 weeks old, she was taken to hospital for severe wheezing. She had ongoing breathing treatment (on and off - depends on 'her attack' or ‘when she was wheezing') until around 3 1/2 years old. I remembered I had to hold the mask to cover Mikaela's mouth and nose for 10 - 15 minutes... for every 3 hours, then 4 hours then at last every 6 hours (depending on condition). I was praying so hard that it’s just one time thing for Kyron. In the past, when I hold the mask on Mikaela - my mind was racing - is that medicine safe for my kid? Will that medicine shut her growth especially with some of steroids medicine and pulmicort. (not all the time) - often aubuterol. All those crazy things come to my mind. AND it happened again with Kyron today. I asked Dr. She said- it doesn’t do much harm but HELP him to breathe better. I have to research more on it.

Poor Mikaela, she had been so good – patience with me and Kyron. I asked – her – what would she like to have for dessert? She picked brownies so I paged Hollie to get brownies for dessert and other things for dinner. Kids and I ended up staying in the doctor office for over 2 hours! Dr. asked me an interesting question – If it wasn’t for Flu Shot appointment – Will I bring him to dr? I simply said – no. He was active; his appetite was good and all that. Just cold and congested.. Dr agreed and said I’m glad that he’s here! He must have that treatment now! I said – if not then what? Dr said it could be fine or for worse. I want him to be VERY fine than go for worse. Kyron didn’t have his flu shot and I’m happy that he has been treated for his severe wheezing. That’s suck being deaf! I can’t hear his wheezing. Dr. D, she also asked me question – how does he sleeps? Not so good for few nights now. She smiled! (WTF…she smiled!) I had to ask! Why? She said – Kyron wasn’t sleeping well because he has stuffy in his nose and “lungs”. In my mind – could it lead to SIDS? Then Dr. D said – it could lead to SIDS as he couldn’t breathe well. Now I probably will never go sleep! The good news is that he kept me wake most of night when he couldn’t “feel” comfortable with himself.

That is scary moment but I know he’s going to be fine. But I'm glad that it had happened today.

My two children are my precious babies!

His TOY! -Updated!!

Kyron's new sneakers! He wouldn't let anyone take his shoes off. H did test on him by taking his shoes off. Oh boy... He was so P;ssed! He threw a fit and signed - SHOES SHOES train SHOES Train SHOES Train Train! Til he get his shoes back on again! Whoa!!! He will take his shoes off before he goes bed and put it on as soon as he wake up. (not easy task!)



I asked him, What do you love the most? He showed that! Not surprising!! His favorite toy of this month. We were wondering how long will it lasts?

UPDATED:::::

Kyron refused to take his shoes off for bed. I tried to take his shoes off. He cried - Shoes-Shoes -Train-Train! We had to let him sleep with his sneakers on! Urgh... At about 2:30am, I took his shoes off. He just slept through it. Whew! Mission completed!
