Issa, Vince & Marc at the Log Jam, EK!

Dateline: 16 April 2011

Photos were taken during Smart's Fun Familia annual event. This time, the kids chose Enchanted Kingdom for the "nth" time. :D

Here's the photos;

I'm not yet done with the processing of other pics. Let's see what I can share on the next blog...

ADSF 2011 Family Day

Dateline: February 19, 2011

As a catholic school, any event that's being participated by the parents and/or other visitors, before opening the program/activity, they always starts with a mass.

The "Our Father" song;

The communion;

I wasn't able to capture Issa's turn as she seems to be hiding and walked fast 'cause she knows that my camera is aimed at her.

Some snaps while waiting for the pre-school presentation;

The pre-school presentation;

Then lunch time came;

Some bingo games;

One of the highlights of the event is the basketball game between the dad's and the school faculty/maintenance/support group. The other is the volleyball between the mom's and school faculty/maintenance/support group also. I didn't sign-up this time to play/coach, as I said to them that I'm going to give chance to other daddy who wishes to do the same role. But I ended up doing the coaching again as requested by some daddy.

We're hungry for revenge this year as we've lost last year's game. But we actually had a 1-1 standing as we already have won last 2009's game. And it seems that luck was on our side again this time as we won by only 1 point. Hahahahaha.

Some snaps;

Complete album.

Prim and...

...nagpapa-cute! ;-D

& the "nagpapa-cute" one! :D

Again, both pictures were taken by Smart Amazing Phone 1 device wayback 2004 (March 14, 2004).

Issa’s SVI

At last, after having a fever since Saturday night (February 5), her temperature seems to normalize today
after doing round-the-clock medication and causing me to take a leave of absence for 2-consecutive days now.

It started when my wife & I were about to sleep at around 2:00 AM (after having some drinking spree with her two officemates who visited us here) and she did the usual routine of checking Issa on her bed. She noticed that Issa seems to have a slight fever. We immediately gave her a paracetamol and I decided to sleep and stay with her on her bed.

The next day (Sunday), we monitored her temperature and noticed that the lowest and highest reading that we were getting is 38.1 & 39.6 respectively. We were hopeful that that’ll subside till the next morning (Monday) as she also needed to go to school for their scheduled mid-quarter exam. But when we both woke-up, she’s still hot and her temperature was at 38 something. We decided then that she’ll skip her class and we’ll instead go to her other pedia (Dra. Aguinaldo of FEU Hospital) in the morning. (FEU hospital is much closer to our place from her original pedia’s (Dra, De Joya) clinic which is at Mindanao Avenue)

On the way to the hospital clinic, she seems to feel fine and her temperature seems to be normal also. It was also attested by the Doctor’s assistant that Issa seems to have a normal temperature. And alas, her turn to be checked-up. There she was diagnose of having a SVI (Severe? Viral Infection). The Doctor gave another medication and told us to still monitor Issa’s temperature if it will continue to rise-up until this day thus Issa need to go back to the hospital to have a dengue fever routine check-up. Yesterday, the Doctor already gave us the request for the laboratory test Issa needs to do if the situation arises. But gladly when we woke-up this morning her temperature went down 37.8 (at 6:05 AM) & at 35.6 (8:00 AM) from the lowest (38.3) & highest (39.8) temperature reading of the previous night.

Hopefully she fully recovers today so she can attend her school tomorrow and also be able to catch up the lectures she missed and most specially the 4 academic exams her classmates took. And I can eventually return to work as well.
