We went to the clinic this morning, hoping to meet with a
liver specialist. The doctor met with us
briefly and was quite frank telling us he has no pediatrics experience. He redirected us to a pediatrician who will
look at the girls’ files and provide us advice on how to care for them until we
get back to Canada. They were weighed
and have gained slightly since their last medical in May.
We have provided them with unlimited sugar water and special
formula and we saw dark yellow urine this morning for the first time – not the
brown we had been seeing since we got them.
They are passing stools frequently but no diarrhea, which is good as we
have started to slowly introduce congee.
We will meet with the doctor again tomorrow morning.
The girls are very easy.
They are able to self-soothe and prefer to fall asleep on their own next
to each other. We had good nights so
far, they love to eat and eat 3 regular meals and a couple of snacks a
day. Our outings are quite limited with
open windows of about 2 hours.
We are anxiously waiting for news from Singapore to
determine our return date.
J'ai entendu cette chanson de Félix Leclerc à la radio et elle m'a fait pensé à vous...

C'était un p'tit bonheur que j'avais ramassé
Il était tout en pleurs sur le bord du fossé
Quand il m'a vu passer il s'est mis à crier:
«Monsieur, ramassez-moi, chez vous, amenez-moi
Mes frères m'ont oublié je suis tombé, je suis malade
Si vous n'me cueillez point je vais mourir, quelle ballade!
Je me ferai petit, tendre et soumis, je vous le jure
Monsieur, je vous en prie, délivrez-moi de ma torture!»
J'ai pris le p'tit bohneur, l'ai mis sous mes haillons
J'ai dit: «Faut pas qu'il meure, viens-t-en dans ma maison»
Je suis bouche bee, merci...
