Iverson had a high fever and bad cough since sunday nite. He has been seeing Dr Foo and Hon in the daily basis for nebulizer in the morning and evening to clear the phlegm and wheezing sound. However, after 4 days, his condition still not getting any better and the wheezing sound is getting obvious. According to Dr Hon, Iverson is suffering from Acute Bronchiolitis and need to be admitted to hospital.
What is Bronchiolitis? Bronchiolitis is an infection of the small airways of the lung (the bronchioles). It is a common condition of babies. Most affected babies are not seriously ill, and make a full recovery. Sometimes it becomes more serious and hospital care may be needed.
Immediately, we sent him to Damansara Specialist Hospital which is near our home and also my company hospital panel. According to Dr Soh Lay Sian, Iverson has to be treated with nebulizer every hour, followed by every 3 hours and then by every 4 hours. Frankly speaking, it is not easy for a 9-month old baby to go through all this. However, his willingness to go through the nebulizer treatments has proved to us once again that he is really a tough baby.
Today is a Valentine day but we don't celebrate this year. Our mind is on our beloved son, Iverson. Nothing is more important than Iverson now. We want him to recover as soon as possible.
