This was my photo when I turned five months old. This is a stolen shot while playing with Dad. There are times when mom jokingly says to my dad that maybe her real baby is not me … maybe accidentally changed in the hospital when I was born. Silly thinking mom. She said that because me and mom never looks the same in any angle. But dad will answered with a big NO because he said that my face is very much looks like him and he is very glad hihihi I don’t know why hes glad maybe because I’m cute. Anyway forget about it because that conversation happens many times.
Well at five months old my hair became thicker and longer. Dad always told my mom to cut my hair a little because its summer and I think he felt pity for me when I’m sweating but my mom will answered a big NO because since I’m a baby girl she wanted me to have a long hair to put some accesories on my hair hihihi lately that discussion happens almost everyday.
On the other hand one thing they’re not discussing is about my eyes. I have a big expressive eyes. Both of them love my eyes.
Sometimes expecting too much hurts a lot. During my visit to the other doctor for my BCG vaccine, they did not hear any murmur in my heartbeat so mom and dad assumes that the hole in my heart totally close. Last week we went to my real doctor and had my echo x-ray and the result was still I have this heart defects, this result made my parents frustrated but the good news is that its getting smaller, a big chance the hole to close and low risk of operation. First from 3mm then 2mm and now 1.5 mm, it closes a half. Next schedule for my echo x-ray will be on October. Were still praying for my illness to heal.
They bought me a walker with a red, yellow and white colors. Is this too early for a five months old baby like me? When I’m using this instead of moving forward I’ll do it backward. At first I was delighted but when they push the button in front of me I’ll cry because I hear the voice of different animals and it scares me.
It was yesterday when three of us went to the hospital (the place where I was born) for my BCG vaccine, since mom cannot read kanji dad escorted us because there was a form that need to be filled and all written in kanji . It was about our family health background; mom have a history of tuberculosis and was healed three years before … for that reason dad was hesitate to give me the vaccine.
We meet the doctor (not the same doctor of my heart problem) and they talked about moms’ history of tuberculosis they say that since mom was healed before I was born they think that its okay to give me the vaccine, another thing dad asked was about my heart problem …. the doctor says that my heart problem doesn’t matter, then after the conversation the doctor with his stethoscope checked my heartbeat after a long silent he said that he didn’t hear any murmur (thanks God). So the conversation ends with a smile on my parents face.
We hope that the hole in my heart had closed because this month of 17th I still need to have an echo x-ray. Anyway we left the hospital because the BCG vaccination there were scheduled every Friday and we didn’t got an appointment because it was full so we landed into small hospital near our place. This time it was a long conversation about me and moms’ health history. In the end instead of the vaccine the doctor gave me a tuberculin skin test. We stayed there about half an hour to observe me for any reaction. They need to observe me for 48 hours and if no reaction occurs we will go back there tomorrow for a true BCG vaccine.
