As with every other day, I return home from work and interact with my children, Nicholas asked me to look at his nose. I did not immediately attend to him as I am going thru Linus's schoolwork. Nicholas reminded me again.
I went to look into his nose and to my great surprise, I saw a round object (looked like a Lego piece) was stuck inside his nose. I tried to "dig" it out, but he felt painful. Worried that the Lego would went down into his lung, I immediately drove him down to NUH children emergency department.
As it was an urgent case, we had the priority to see the doctor first. Much to our relief, the doctor managed to take the Lego out without sedating Nicholas.
This event was the worst thing that can happen.... Never before my heart was feeling so terrible. I could really felt the worried and fear that almost drown me... The stress nearly made me collapse.
Hope that Nicholas would be more sensible. This was his second major incident. The previous case he was scalded by hot water from neck down to his body. He develop a fever and had to stay in the hospital.
As I typed this, my heart still had not settle down..... my innocent Nicholas still asked if his Lego will be returned from doctor and bring home to play.....
