an unlucky year

tuesday i was on child sick. my ger was having high fever up to 40 degree. after seeing a GP, not much use. I bring her see PD. the doc say maybe its "fake measles
", he say nowdays children have injection so dun have real measles. But my ger schedule for the measles injection is in dec leh......that means can be real measles also mah??anyway, my ger after 3 days of fever, yest and today, she got quite alot of red spots on her body...so its really measles.

my grandmum pass away on tuesday nite at 10pm. I was still in jurong then as was on child sick leave. was planning to go back school teach on weds, but grandmum passed away. So i phone my HOD and say need 3 days leave. will on go back on monday. Grandmum is 101 years old. she refused to eat any food since sunday, and passed away peacefully like sleeping on tuesday nite. no pain no suffering, considered v gd life already.

i send my girl to my in law house yesterday so that i can go to the funeral. alot of things need to be done there, as my grandmum children not many( 2 passed away, left 4), and grandchildren also not many. great grandchild only got one.that is my girl.

today i am in yishun house taking care of my girl. As she is not feeling well and with measles, she is very easily irritated. After yesterday taking care session by my in laws, last nite they say cannot help to take care anymore as my girl is very difficult, keep crying and very unhappy. Initially still thought of going down to the wake, now cannot liao.

dun know what to do for the next few days, my grandmum funeral will only end on sunday evening. Need someone to look after her as my whole family will be involve in the funeral and my jurong house is the base for the funeral.so my girl cannot go there also.

I guess my hubby really have to take a half day leave on friday to look after my girl, then maybe i will tell my mum he cannot come for the ritual thing on saturday. then he can look after my girl on saturday. sunday will be difficult, my hubby definitely need to be at the funeral as its the sending off.
