What's Wrong with You??

Was watching the news just now and found out that another patient had died of dengue. And it doesn't help that I am currently experiencing myalgia and feeling febrile.

I took my temperature using the free thermometer I got from the hospital during the SARS outbreak (that was when we had to take daily temperatures and own up if we were indeed febrile). Hmmm... 36.4 degrees celcius. With my frequent runs to the toilet or rather just frequent runs of diarrhoea, I shall attribute my symptoms to that of viral gastroenteritis.

It's amazing how an insignificant-looking 6 legged winged creature which goes through life feeding through a straw can cause so much damage to us. But I guess there is less hysteria and panic amongst the people as they can identify the culprit- the mosquito or rather the flavivirus which is using the aedes aegypti as its host. This is unlike during the SARS outbreak when we don't have a clue (initially) as to what was the mode of transmission. i.e. who is the culprit?

So I guess it all boils down to knowing who the real culprit is.

I was never good at diapers. Not until now.

When i was a student, I would mess up the adult diapers. For some strange reason, I could never remove the diaper properly from a patient or secure a diaper adequately so as to produce a professionally-looking end result.

So now after 4 months of intensive diaper changing, I am proud to say that I am now accredited to change diapers for infants. Or so I thought.

All the leading brand of diapers boast of being able to hold in the excrement and what not.

Well. It's a whole lot of bull I tell you.

The number of accidents that have happened since May this year has been uncountable. You can ensure that the gathers of the diapers are secured properly etc etc and still the lovely human mud will find its way out of that so-called impermeable barrier.

So the only reason I can offer for this phenomenon....

Shit flows in many directions.
