Missing our 3rd Sat St Michael's Healing Mass

:(
We've always looked forward to it and this month is the second time we missed it. The boys were down with a horrible flu last weekend especially so on Sat that they just sleep and sleep after their medication. So we missed the healing mass again this time. Last month, Jere had the fever and this month is the flu.

Lord, protect the kids from all these nasty viruses and ban away anything that would keep us away from you. AMEN!

ITCHY ITCHY ITCHY!!!!

Jere's eczema seems to be getting really really bad.... it's extremely red and weepy especially behind the knees.... sometimes his eyes even get puffy and there are red patches on his face.

His neurologist had mentioned before that spina bifida kids tend to have very bad skin problems....

We've tried almost everything....
homeopathy.... super costly
aloe gel... he uses oh so much....
tea tree lotions....
doctors prescribe.... steroidal creams like hydrocortisone...

we've tried almost every kinda bath on the shelves... from QV to QV kids to cetaphil to dermaveen to I don't know what else....

last night he's so upset coz of the itch that he refused dinner.

He just went ITCHY ITCHY ITCHY......

poor baby....

If you've got anything good to recommend, please leave me a note...

or should i return to do the constitutional test with the homeopath and as she said tear off the layer that it never returns....

or I am about to become a witch doctor making my own concoction till i find sometime right.... Lord lead me!

Yes, the Lord will heal Jeremiah. AMEN

Update on the Fever

It's Monday morning and it's kinda low grade or gone now...

The whole Friday night, I was like on sentry duty as the fever spiked a high of 39.5 deg and hovered about there.

Came Sat morning, it went down to a low grade fever of 37 plus.

That Sat, we made an appointment to see Dr Simon Ng at Mt Alvernia at 4.30pm while monitoring his temperature all day.

Little Jere seemed to have a little cough and quite a sore throat so Dr Simon said he would treat it as an upper respiratory infection and watch.

Sunday, his temperature was alright... ranging from low grade fever to normal....

The fever should not go beyond 3 days says Dr Simon and that is Monday afternoon it should be gone GONE!

Praise the Lord Jere seems well and temperature seems normal when I left for work. He was still sleeping.... how sweet... my baby...

Fever's Gone!

Praise the Lord!
Temperature is now 36.8 deg.... NORMAL.

Keep those prayers going and keep little Jeremiah covered and protected.

BAN THE FEVER AWAY!!!!!

AMEN

Fever :(

The helper just called and said Jere's hot with 39.2 deg fever.

Please pray that the fever gets banned away and no further complications arise. Amen.

i don't really feel like writing much so in short,

Please pray that the fever gets banned away....

and that it's not UTI.

Everytime he gets a fever, i hope it's juz a bug he juz caught and not UTI

when he gets fever
I get scared
coz i worry for UTI
which means he gotta go for antibiotic jab daily or be warded....
and then if he gets UTI, i gotta worry for his kidneys too
his condition ---> more prone to UTI
coz he has what you call a neurogenic bladder = he can't empty his bladder

Please pray that little Jere will be well soon! AMEN.

4th Neurologist Assessment - Dec 2007 - How did it go?

In short, it's ok. will elaborate later.

but the Dr sure always says things to bring me down the rest of the day.

God's prompting!

and yes His prompting is so so strong that I must post here and remind myself....
I got that prompting at the last healing mass and now as I am seated in front of the PC too....telling me even to print out a part of this blog which shares the good news to be put on transparency on the overhead projector so that people could read if we are not clear enough as we speak.

At the last healing mass in St Michael's 15th Dec, when testimonies were being called for, I was telling myself as I was seated at my bench that I wanna go out and proclaim His name and give all glory to Him the next healing mass! I told the Lord that in 2 days' time, Jeremiah will have a test, the Micturating Cistogram or MCU in short to check the functionality of his bladder and if there was any reflux to the kidneys. I asked the Lord to heal Jeremiah, to protect Jeremiah kidneys, to heal his neurogenic bladder, restore the nerves that had been affected in the open neural tube defect. I then told the Lord, Lord, I wanna be out there in the next healing mass sharing in the wonderful love and blessings that He has bestowed upon Jeremiah and us his family.

Jeremiah was born with Spina Bifida, in other words, an open neural tube defect and this affects him hips down, of which one of the problems are a neurogenic bladder which is Drs say he can't empty his bladder due to some nerve that got damaged or never ever developed. Thus, we have to go for such tests regularly to assess progress to ensure the kidneys aren't affected.

And the next healing mass at St Michael's you shall see us proclaim His name! otherwise knock us hard on our heads! Maybe I should get Tim to read this or to do the testimony as I always get too emotional. TIM DEAR! ARE YOU READING????
