My life turned upside down last Saturday. My son - Jr, whom some of u guys knew was daignosed suffering phneumonia after an X-ray. Specialist advised him to be admitted immediately becos a major part of his right lung is infected and he had been having fever for almost a week.
It was a traumatizing experience for him and our family. He almost lost his voice due to crys everytime he is on nebulizer and antiboitic given thru drip. Physciotherapy was given to him every twice a day - "Patting" of the lung area, which sent him screaming more. I make a bad decision by asking them to insert a tube to draw out the phlegm........ All I can hear is his crys all day moment he is due for some treatment. Its really difficult to describe what a small kid went thru.
There are a few points that I would like to share with all my frens here:-
1) Do not take it too lightly even tho u think u are having a simple cough, which in this case of my son, it started as a simple cough.
2) Get sufficient insurance coverage for hospitalization - The bill for this case of 3 days stay is $2500!
This is a wake up call for me and I hope this do not happen on anyone else.
I like to take this opportunity to thanks u guys who had shown concern and a doctor among our member who had helped me in getting medical equipment. I truly appreciate it.
I am glad he is finally discharged today.
