Nathanael is slowly getting better, thank you for your prayers. His appetite for food is still not good, as in he doesn't want to eat his bread and rice, so he's still on his RCF milk, which the doctor have asked us to increase the dosage twice to ensure that there's enough nutrients getting into Nathanael. On the fourth day of his Stomach Flu, he recovered somewhat a bit, and we brought him down to our Condo's playground ... so that he could get some fresh air and also some simulation with the playground equipment. Pity that it rain in the early morning, so the only thing i could dry was the swing ..... and here is Nathanael on the SWING. :) Nathanael on the Swing. As u can see he's not totally well .. and he's not really smiling! See his sad face .... don't put me on the swing!! And u can see both his hands gripping tightly to the Yellow Chain. We have a nice playground at our Condo ... :) Check out the Video of Nathanael on the Swing [tags : darent...

Nathanael at Damansara Specialist to see Dr Vasantha this morning. He wasn't his usual cheerie self, but was whining all the time. When we saw Dr Vasantha and infomed her of Nathanael's symptoms, vomiting and no appetite to eat, she told us that this morning alone she already saw 4 children with the same symptoms. She said keep the kids out of Crowded area, cos the virus can be passed thru air. So Dr Vasantha prescribed three medications for Nathanael. Of the three, two are suppository (where it has to be inserted from the behind) AND of course Dr Vasantha is also aware of Nathanael's Ketogenic Diet, so no medicine with syrup base or sugar content. We were given Maxolon, which was suppose to stop the vomiting, Voltran which we normally use for fever, but Dr Vasantha said it will also help for his stomach spasms. And finally Zirtomax which is an anti biotic for Nathanael. Nathanael still vomited another 3 more times after eating the medication in the afternoon and we...

It all started with Zoe Joy yesterday. We dont know why but she vomited twice yesterday. And her bowels also let go ONE big time yesterday. Poor girl!! But she's much better today. :) Then this evening, Nathanael just vomited four times within an hour. Since he's on the Ketogenic Diet and has water rationing, we stopped the water rationing, and we also stopped his routine meal intake. Poor boy, after all the vomitting, he must be really tired, cos when we made him to lie down with mommie, he just doze of and slept! (Not normal and its not even 10pm yet!) Then on top of that Mommie also vomited twice this evening. She started feeling unwell in the later afternoon, early evening. But mommie can drink 100 Plus (we hear that after throwing up .. drinking 100Plus replenishes your minerals inside.. so we always keep 100Plus in the fridge!) So yeah .. the family is kinda not toooo well this weekend. Please pray for them ya!! Pray that daddie remains STRONG to take care of everyone!! :...

Just last Thursday Nathanael went for his weekly physio therapy at HUKM. He was put on two new exercise and therapy "equipments" to help in his balance. Nathanael started off with the Walker to help him to put strength in his legs so that he can learn to walk! We're really glad that HUKM has great equipments and it can be adjusted to fit different heights easily. Next, Nathanael was put onto the Swinging Equipment. You know how each time you sit on a swing, you need to balance yourself to keep above the swing! :) Yeah ... so that's what Nathanael was taught to do. We are glad to see him gripping the rope so tightly, cos it shows that he knows that in order to balance he needs to hold on to something stable. :) Haha ... see Cute Nathanael. He tries to give you the "frown" look. He's been doing that a lot lately! :) This is a Rope Bridge, and we can see its shaky and totally unlevel. We're glad to see him learning to balance himself on it!! If yo...

This is a new milestone for Zoe Joy. Tiff managed to video her climbing up her first stairs!!

Check her out in the Video below .. cos she moves real FAST!! [tags : darentiff zoejoy ]

See how happy Nathanael is, when he gets the opportunity to play with the Keyboard. We also recently realized that we need to get him some sort of a banging instrument.... yeah something like a drum .. but where u can beat with your hands .. Bongo ... or one of those things. Play it like Beethoven !! :) As you can see even when Nathanael's playing with something that he likes, we make it as a form of a therapy And by kneeling, he strengthen his legs and hips muscle. Watch the Video where Nathanael plays the Keyboard [tags : darentiff nathanael zoejoy ]

Baby Zoe is growing up and growing tall really fast. She's learning to stand up longer and loves to stand. Here is a couple of pictures where she pulled herself to stand up by our bed. See ... i am pulling myself up And i can reach the top part of daddie & mommie's bed Hmm ... let me see if i can pull myself up and over the mattress Heave Ho ....... Hmmmmph!! Guess I can't yet. Can't seem to get my legs over the bed!! Why is the bed so HIGH? See even if i stand straight up I can't peer onto the top of the bed!! I need to grow taller!!!! [tags : darentiff zoejoy ]

This is new milestone for Nathanael. Tiff managed to catch the entire epsiode on video. Nathanael was sitting next to our coffee table and he picked up a cable (reading light cable), which happened to be lying next to the cable. Nathanael has recently learnt to pick things up (ie our handphones, things he likes). So we were very happy when he picked up the white cable (which was about 2cm wide). And not only did he pick up the cable, he began to play with it, swinging it back and forth ... and totally enjoying himself!! That's a great milestone, cos he's learning to pick up objects and to play with them. Watch it all on this 90 seconds video. [tags : darentiff nathanael milestone ]
