Assalamualaikum...
I still remembers how your body temperature suddenly rise. You became weak and somber. And through the night when i breastfeed you, you body feel so hot, like an iron burning hot. But i don't care, i just hug you through the night.
Deep inside, i was so damn worried. i was shattered to pieces. i couldn't even reach the temperature monitor to check on you. i don't want the number fools me. Yeah... kind of stupido. i put wet towels on your head. and i notice, you keep on sweating.
Sweating is good, right? it shows that your immune system is fighting back.....right?
I couldn't sleep well that night. Every now and then, i wake up to check on your breathing and fed you milk. i feel powerless.
So, this is how a mother feel when their child is sick. Sad. Yeah... i feel sad, yet i couldn't cry. i need to be strong. A mother SUPPOSED to be strong.
the day after that night, i saw it coming. your gum is swollen and there is a trace of white teeth coming out from it.
i am a happy mother! :)
