sick kid

Matt had a terrible cough for 4 weeks. On the 2nd week, we took him to TMC for a check up. I’m used to really nice pediatricians who are very sweet and friendly to kids. This was my first time to encounter one who didn’t smile and was quite a grouch. Perhaps we caught her at a very bad time. But nevertheless, right? She kept saying that Matt’s cough had improved and there was no need for him to take any medicines. Funny because it was our first time to see her so how would she know if it had improved or not? Water therapy, she said.

Two weeks after that, total of 4 weeks already, we took Matt to the ER since it was getting worse. Apparently, he had Pneumonia. But they sent us home because “he looked well”. The following day, we took him back because he had a high fever and was really sick. They had to confine him and asked why he was sent home the night before when the Pneumonia was detected? Shall we start pointing fingers now? Tsk tsk tsk!

Despite that bad experience and the not-so-nice pedia, all the staffs in TMC were wonderful! Everyone was just too nice, friendly and approachable. Even the hospital food was well presented and very tasty! Hotel service! The best part was there’s a Starbucks in front of the lobby and a lot of restaurants since it’s right beside Rockwell Business Center. Though we didn’t pay for anything in the hospital, we spent trying out each restaurant. Worth it.
