By Hook or By Crook!

Dengue is a life threatening disease transmitted by mosquitoes and it is common in tropical countries. Last Friday, hubby had a sudden skin rash, fever, joint and muscle pain which are the common symptoms of dengue. I was too worried so we went to the hospital immediately and have him checked. The Dr. advised us to come back on the next day for the lab tests; coz it usually takes 24hrs to detect the virus. We went back the following day and it was such a relief. Negative. whew! ^_^ That disease was identified as CHIKUNGUNYA. It's a viral disease transmitted to humans by infected mosquitoes and it could last up to two weeks or longer. It's not as deadly as dengue but they do share some clinical signs. "thank god! because there are no specific drugs yet to cure that virus" He was just advised to take paracetamol every 4 hours and have plenty of rest. 

At times like this, I need to be more patient when he's being grumpy and considerate when he's having temper tantrums. Mahirap din.haha. Its certainly one of the hardest things a wife has ever had to do for his husband. That's fine though. (marunong naman mag-sorry pag nagkakamali ang batang may sakit) ^_^ I know he would also want to be pampered when he’s sick. Ako rin nemen.hahaha. :p 

Always remember that I’ll always be here for you, comfort you, and love you by hook or by crook. ^_^ I love you...
