After having fever intermittently for 6 days, we decided to send EeRynn to hospital for blood test. We arrived to Sunway Medical Centre without appointment. Luckily we were early and we managed to get number 1. We waited for a while and eventually the pediatrician came to see EeRynn.
After diagnosis, doctor suggested to draw some blood to look at basic blood count & urine test. The needle was as thick as rubber band and the length is about 2mm. I hold EeRynn hand and explain to her that Dr XXX will poke a needle into her left hand to collect blood for blood test. As I was trying to distract her, doctor pokes the needle into her left hand ( area near the fingers ) and the blood was flowing out (droplets). EeRynn observed the whole process seeing her blood flowing out for few seconds to the required amount. Then doctor pull the needle out from her left hand and cover with a plaster.
She wasn't crying. The pediatrician & his assistant were so amazed with her. I am so proud of her! Hugging her and praising her. She is a brave girl! My husband said as tough as mommy :>
