Roseola AttacK


Dear Yasmin,

You started having little red spots all over your face and body yesterday, and this morning, there are more of them and redder in colour! You have what Dr Gong said Roseola.

Last Friday you started having a little fever in the morning, by bedtime, you fever had climbed up to 39.2 degree. Mommy and Daddy sponge bathed you and gave you panadol and the fever subsided afterward. However the fever came back the next morning to 39.3 degree and we were very worried. We sponge bathed you a few times and your fever would go away for a few hours and always came back.

We brought you to see Dr Gong on Monday morning and he said you probably have Roseola and you would start having little red spots on your body soon for a few days. True enough, your fever had gone away and the little red spots arrived at night.

You were so tired after the fever, the last few days you were very clingy and always stick to mommy and daddy. You didn't even want to push your walker. Get well soon Yasmin! Daddy and mommy love you!

Daddy
