damn the stupid aedes bloodsucker.

my dad has dengue! platelet count: 75 only! in case you are wondering, there are 4 serotypes of dengue fevers. if you think it's like chicken pox, which occurs once in a lifetime (if you don't count shingles), you are wrong! if you get a secondary infection (serotype 2 - dengue haemorrhagic fever), it'd probably be more fatal than the first one.

that's why i'm worried for my mum too.

that was why i was so scared of getting it during my fever. because if i did, i'd probably have missed more than half of midyears! scary scary~

and in case you don't take bio, platelets are those thingys in your blood that clots your blood by releasing enzymes when damaged. they prevent bacteria infection and over-loss of blood. so if your platelet count is low, there's a higher possibilty to either bleed to death or get infected by even more dangerous bacteria when there's a wound.

dear heavenly Father, please heal my dad with Your holy hands. amen.


there she goes
