Our stay at Children's Hospital in Central California

Our trip to Fresno 3/28-30
3/28 - Great grandma's funeral. We drove up to Fresno early in the morning. Mama was comforted to see all her family and relatives and to remember por por together.

3/28 - 3/30 Mama and Baba stayed with KK at the hospital
We noticed KK's left eyelid was a little pink and swollen on our ride to Fresno, but it just got worse after the service, so we took her to ER in the afternoon. KK was admitted for antiobiotics with IVs right the way (well, after 5 hrs at ER, which is relatively short). It was 11pm when we finally got to our room. Baba and Mama stayed with KK in the hospital while Ian stayed with grandma and grandpa at 2 Kou Kun's house. We're so fortunate that KK got immediate treatment, Ian was well taken care of, and the hospital is only 10 mins away.

We stayed there for 2 nights and it was a precious experience for all of us. KK remained bubbly except when the nurse refilled her antibiotics every 8 hrs. Baba played with KK at the play room every day while Mama went to see Ian. We also took KK on wagon rides all over the hospital and she would smile and greet people passing by. Meanwhile Ian was very cooperative and entertaining to all the great uncles and aunts. We feel so blessed with this unexpected experience. And thanks the staff at the hospital for their professional and pleasant service.
