Aku dan Chicken Pox

"Ko tak pernah kena ke masa kecik?"
"Eh! masa kecik ko tak kena ke?"
"Ko baru nak kena ke?"
"Dah tua2 baru nak kena ke?"

Yupp I am 36 years old and I having a chicken pox . Pening nak cari jawapan. I really can't remember weather I had the chickenpox before or not. Maklumlah dibesarkan dengan Atok dan Opah sehingga 10-11 tahun. Both were passed away , so I cant dig up the answer for you. So I assume I had. Why? I still remember masa sekolah rendah dulu around 6-7 years watching my friend who had the chicken pox all over his body. Biasalah masa kecik suka pergi rumah orang hehe. Tengok my friend's mom sapu bedak sejuk to all over his body and face. Baring atas daun pisang nak bagi sejuk sebab bila luka it's very painfull. Suapkan bubur. Suapkan air. Nampak sangat tak larat. Bila satu muka dan badan, kaki dah putih macam hantu , aku gelakkan je la... hahahhaha . Last-last aku kena halau balik. Itu je information yang aku ada until sekarang. Rupa bentuk blister tu pun aku tak ingat.
Kenapa aku tak dijangkiti ek? I assume ( my assumption) I already had much earlier before.... when I was really baby.... My parent can't remember at all coz I was 'given' to Atok & Opah when I was 2-3 months. That's why aku tak ada chicken pox scar. Kalau demam campak tu aku masih ingat lagi kena kat kampung rumah arwah Moyang ( really kampung house , still remember I love playing the cahaya matahari yang 'masuk' ke dalam rumah dari celah2 atap rumbia dan 'jatuh' atas lantai kayu). Opah baringkan aku di tepi tingkap yang ada cahaya matahari masuk, tapi di letakkan tudung saji agar cahaya matahari tu not directly fall on me. Kiranya aku baring bawah tudung saji yang ditegakkan. Masa tu I really sick asyik muntah je, tak lalu makan so Opah belikan aku jeruk pelam. Bila dah makan jeruk pelam tu baru lah aku lalu sikit nak telan nasi dan ubat. Aku pun tak tahu kenapa dia buat macam tu , tak sempat nak tanya...huhu.

So today it's the 5th day with chicken pox. Hari pertama was Saturday, masa tanya kat hubby bintat apa di belakang saya , aku tergaru sebab gatal so bila pecah keluar air , my husband said entah macam melecup tu. Yelah, my eyes couldnt reach that thing but my hand do. Okay I ignore it and sapu jel gamat. Petang Sabtu tu siap pergi melawat saudara yang baru bersalin di wad bersalin, peluk2 baby. Im sorry little baby hope you are strong enough to resist the virus. Then later pergi Hotel Seri Malaysia for breakfasting. Saja cari kelainan, tambahan pulak bawak mak mertua biorler tempat best sikit. Seriusly.. time tu aku tak lalu makan , I feel dizziness, my joints feel pain and badan rasa tak best. So pinggan nasi dan lauk aku tolak tepi. Luckily ada jeruk pelam dan kedondong so aku makan sikit and sambung balik makan nasi 2-3 suap. Then aku order teh tarik. Malam tu aku demam aku telan 2 biji penadol. But still hugged and kisses to my kid. Sahur rasa sihat tapi still tak lalu makan nasi. So makan kurma je.

Hari Ahad (2nd day), pagi tu pergi grup discussion . Really not feeling well, seram2 sejuk ( I did post to my FB wall) but still manage to stay in the grup till 12.30 pm. My grupmate mula menyakat aku pregnant hahhaha. Balik rumah rasa nak muntah so aku terpaksa pecah puasa dan telan 2 biji panadol dan minum Orange Peel Fresh and sleep. Petang tu bangun pergi Bazar Ramdhan pulak... sorry la sesaper yang berjangkit dengan aku tuh... Malam telan panadol and sleep. Sahur rasa okay and sihat so aku decided pergi kerja.

Hari Isnin (3rd day). Kat office feel very uncomfortable. Dizziness and seram sejuk (37-38 Celcius je ), perut pedih, asyik sedawa jer banyak angin. So pukul 9.30am ambik exit pass bagitahu boss nak pergi klinik. Told the doctor that I had the simptom of pregnancy (period dah lewat few days) and gastric. So I took the pregnancy test and it's negative ( pheww at least not now.. hehehe ) and I was given segala ubat gastric and ubat angin and MC 1 day. Balik umah dah makan ubat rasa lapar terus masak nasi and buat sambal sotong. Yummy! Petang pergi bazar Ramadhan. Oh ya! the blister that I had at my back I still sapu jel gamat but still pedih.

Hari Selasa (4th day) . Morning, feeling itchiness on my chest and back. Check on the mirror and confirm it with my husband it is chicken pox!!!! Oucchhh!! Mandi pakai jean n t-shirt hantar hubby n anak2 ke sekolah, then terus gi klinik and see the same doctor. Yupp she confirmed it and gave me Mc's for this week. It is infectious and could spread easily so I have to avoid any contact with people. Hmm my kids? Luckily they had the MMR injection when they were little one. It might help them to resist the virus. But still , they might get infected if their antibody is not strong enough. The doctor suggest to get a booster at 6-7 years... bila nak bawak depa ni..

So cari buah kelapa muda bagai nak rak... lastly jumpa gak. Cari daun semambu tak jumpa pulak.. biasala bila nak takder... huhuhu. Called my mom and friends to seek all the petuas... jgn garu, jgn makan kicap, jgn kena hujan, jgn makn benda bergoreng, jgn kena panas, jgn mkn telor, jgn itu.. jgn ini.... huhuhu

I 've tried my best to minimize the contact with my kids. The kid seem to understand. I did not eat with them or prepare the meal. No hug and kisses please!!..So, the hubby did it .. Yeayyyy!!

Hari Rabu (5th day). I have 50-60 spotted all over my body. No fever. Tapak kaki pun ada. The old says kalau dah keluar kat tapak kaki tu dah nak baik... I hope soo..... but still I have to remember I am not kid, so the impact might be different .... slower I guess. Told hubby to send kids ke rumah Opah supaya depa tak kena and the disadvantage is.. ponteng sekolah lerr. The hubby said tak payah.. if nak kena .. biarkan lah...huhuh I agreed too.. baik kena masa kecik rather than bila dah dewasa ye tak...

Cuba korang bayang kan kalu kena masa nak kahwin ke, nak interview ke, nak masuk U ke, masa pregnant ke or masa nak bersalin...... nauzubillah kan...

Oleh itu aku rasa bersyukur sangat Allah SWT bagi aku time sekarang ini. Bulan Ramadhan ini bulan rahmat , aku antara insan terpilih . alhamdulillah. Allah Maha Adil.. puasa atau tidak bukan menjadi hal kerana aku uzur pula. Memang doktor tak benarkan aku puasa kerana antiviral tu kena ambik every 5 hours....

This Sunday Im not sure to attend the Finance class or not... rugi plak kalu tak attend bukannya terror pun subject ni. Ada presentation lagik. Huhuhu biorle masa menentukan...
