Rashes are out, how about the fever? Still high? Hope the stupid bug leaves him soon!
I know what you mean about passing time, that's why I am still thankful to the person who invented the handphone and the computer!
You staying there with him? What about the kids at home?
Do take care of yourself too.

He is on drip and given sleeping pill to knock him out.
He stopped complaining about feeling hot and cold liao. But still have bad headache.
Decided to head home and leave him to the 'chio' nurses.
My DS will stay home with grandparents tomorrow.
Hope this will be over soon

I was hit a few years ago. I did not suspect it was a dengue, I can even force myself to go out with the family and I was in Orchard Road when the pain really hit (usual me can still work with fever hitting 39 degrees and not aware of it). It's like someone trying to stretch the blood vessel all over the body. Tan skin made it difficult to see the spots but yes I had that too.
I did a google and read about a scientist trap in Africa with no medication. His suggestion is to drink plenty of fluid to flush out the toxin.
