Since Akshaj sticks to me like fevicol ,I always used to wonder how he will be if I leave him and go for 1-2 days somewhere.....but since there was no such need for it and considering how much drama he creates even if I go out for 1-2 hours somewhere without him I never expected that he will take it very well....
But last month need did arise when I had dengue and had to be hospitalized for some time. At first when doctor told it might be viral fever and I was at home, doctor told to maintain distance especially from Akshaj. But to do that turned out to be tough task. He will very sweetly come and sit next to me and say "Mama you are alone na ..I will sit with you". If I lock the door for some rest he will bang till I not open saying "mama you are in right side no...I will be in left side I will not come near you.. open the door...
So when we heard of hospitalization we were really worried how Akshaj will take it.And surprize surprize he took it quite well...he didn't cry and understood why I need to be in hospital. He would come and visit me everyday and would like to stay with me for night but he didn't press for it and in the end go back home. Sweetest thing was when he would go he would say 'mama don't be sad .OK. See TV".
Funny thing was whoever was calling me were very worried about how Akshaj is taking it..they will ask about me but they really wanted to know how Akshaj is handling it ...what they didn't know he was making his grandparents run around his not so little finger all the time so much that he even made his grandma do his homework one day :-)
My dengue experience: As my doctor would say we dengue sucks the energy out of you ..I found it to be so true. First day when I got fever I suspected dengue because a day before I had gone to park and there were lots of mosqitos...so we went to hospital but doctor told it will be viral fever only ..he did platelet count which was fine ..but the fever persisted and I was feeling very week...next time when we went my hands were itching a lot and then he said this is a sign of dengue ...there is lot of itching in dengue and since I was feeling very low energy he told to get admitted for glucose drip and some tests. The day I got admitted I didn't have any fever only itching but I was feeling very week....then I stayed for 3-4 days in hospital I didn't get fever .Some things which I didn't knew about dengue were.
1.dengue continued without fever also
2.there is so much itching that you can't even sleep
3.that dengue culture report takes 2 days ,that is only in 2 days you can confirm if dengue is there or not.
4.the weakness goes on for a long time..my platelet count was not very less..infact even when it became less it was still in lacks still I felt very week
5.you need to take lots and lots of liquids...that is the only cure for it apart from fever medicine...maybe because I was not taking liquids I was hospitalized otherwise in my case maybe there would have been no need.
