SUPER ANGRY MAMA - THAT'S ME
*fumes from a fireball* wished i didn't go to parkway today! got me really so angry - borrow a phrase from PY - i can kill pp. went into this elevator..as usual, crowded - elbows to jowls..and this rascal, can't be older than 6, was throwing a royal tantrum. his parents ignored him so his tantrums got bigger and bigger. in his hand, he held a weapon (book) and before i knew it, to attract his nonchalant parents' attention, he flung it in our direction! the book hit the baby of all people - right smack in the eye..saw the edge of the book flying into her eye..i couldn't stop it. too damn fast. obviously the babe wailed like crazy..out of pain. whole eye became red and started swelling..what these retards with that rascal of a boy do? FIRST THEY TOLD HIM TO PICK UP THE BOOK - the Dad continued looking at which floor the lift was at, the mother kept saying to that rascal - pick up your book..only when i was so mad, i said, excuse me? my baby's hit did she give a cursory glance and say..oh..sorry! big fat stinky apology that was, i could have put her thru a meat grinder and not felt one ounce of regret. promptly, they got off at whatever ratty floor that could host them. i was too pre-occupied dealing with a massively wailing bb to care. Anyway, she cried and cried and cried for the longest time..i thought that was over, we reached home, sporadically, she would break into crying fits. esp when we try to lay her down. sigh..called the PD at Mt A, told they do not have a pediatric opthamology facility...if i wanna, go back to KKH!! now she is asleep..i hope all is fine..no more redness as far as i can tell..red in the face from all the crying yes..but there's abit of swelling still...haiz! no doubt it is an accident but it was an accident as a direct result of latchkey parenting! can't they just stop the son from his tantrums in the first place? or am i not being too understanding abt this boy and his parents? heck abt being understanding..i wanna put them out in the line. *punch punch punch* ... so mad.. anyway, i have cooled somewhat after taking a long lavender bath. but still seething. now waiting for her to wake up..she sleeps and suddenly wails in her sleep. first time in days, she is taking a nap since waking up at noon today. and this wailing while sleeping is really something v new to me. awww..so very pissed.
mylvera >> my sentiments abt KKH abt the same. i am not impressed esp when they tried to give her paracetamol at day 28 when she was warded for bloody diaper - medication meant for a 9 yo was being fed to a 28 days old! unbelievably sloppy work. plus loads of other observations during her stay there that made me think it isn't a once-off WRT the administration of wrong meds...chronic lapses...plus the bad press earlier this year of similar incidents at KKH...haiz, i wonder..
