~Nebulizer and Bronchitis

Nebulizer

Nebulizers are commonly used for the treatment of cystic fibrosis, asthma, COPD and other respiratory diseases.

Nebulizers use oxygen, compressed air or ultrasonic power to break up medical solutions and suspensions into small aerosol droplets that can be directly inhaled from the mouthpiece of the device. The definition of an aerosol is a "mixture of gas and liquid particles," and the best example of a naturally occurring aerosol is mist, formed when small vaporized water particles mixed with hot ambient air are cooled down and condense into a fine cloud of visible airborne water droplets

Nebulizers are electric- or battery-powered machines that turn liquid asthma medicine into a fine mist that's inhaled into the lungs. The user breathes in the mist through a mouthpiece or facemask. Nebulizers vary in size and shape, but can be a bit bulky and noisy and may need to be plugged in.
A child doesn't have to "do" anything to receive the medicine except stay in one place and accept the mouthpiece or facemask. It usually takes about 5 or 10 minutes to give medication by nebulizer, and sometimes longer. Nebulizers can be less effective if a child is crying during use, since less medicine will be inhaled.


Bronchitis

Bronchitis is a respiratory disease in which the mucus membrane in the lungs' bronchial passages becomes inflamed. 

As the irritated membrane swells and grows thicker, it narrows or shuts off the tiny airways in the lungs, resulting in coughing spells that may be accompanied by phlegm and breathlessness.

The disease comes in two forms: acute (lasting from one to three weeks) and chronic (lasting at least 3 months of the year for two years in a row). 

People with asthma may also have asthmatic bronchitis, inflammation of the lining of the bronchial tubes. 

Acute bronchitis may be responsible for the hacking cough and phlegm production that sometime accompany an upper respiratory infection. In most cases, the infection is viral in origin, but sometimes it's caused by bacteria.

If you are otherwise in good health, the mucus membrane should return to normal after you've recovered from the initial lung infection, which usually lasts for several days.

Chronic bronchitis is a serious long-term disorder that often requires regular medical treatment. Individuals exposed to cigarette smoke, chemical lung irritants, or who are immunocompromised have an increased risk of developing bronchitis.

~My baby not feeling well

My little princess is currently having quite bad coughing. Her cough become worse at night until early morning. Doctor said it is because weather during that time is cooler than day time. I started to notice that Sarah is having cough on Sunday and told my husband. He said we will bring Sarah to see doctor on Monday night if she still having bad cough. On Monday night, we went to Al- Islam Medical Center to see a doctor. The doctor said Sarah lung have no problem and she just having normal cough. No medication needed as she is under one year old. Just give her to drink milk to make her throat comfortable. Next day, we decided not to send Sarah to her nursery so that I can fed her whole day as she drink her milk to little at nursery. Unfortunately, her cough became worse and we decided to bring her to hospital again. But this time to see pediatrician specialist. We went to hospital on Wednesday afternoon, after lunch. After checking, we had been informed that Sarah is having acute Bronchistis.Sarah had to take gas with nebulizer. Sarah was crying all the time while taking the gas. Pity my baby :(
After taking that gas, Sarah cough become better and I believe she is recovering. But one thing that make me relieve is, Sarah is still active as normal no matter how bad her cough ^_^.

P/S: Pic Sarah after crying while taking nebulizer.

~mother

the date of celebration  is over but i don't think it is late for me to talk about it and celebrating it because for me we have to celebrates the day everyday as appreciation to the most adorable woman in the world...Mother.

without her, of course no one from us will be here. will be what we are now.

Since I was a kid, I am always jealous towards my friends who always telling me the story of her mother. but me?? I dont have that kind of story to share with friends because the most important woman in my life is no longer with me either in this world. She left us when I am 3 years old.In that age, there are so little of memory with her that I can remember, only the photo of her that remind me.

Because of that, I think it is only me and people who in the same condition with me will know how life would be without Mother. Especially when your mother left when you are still small, still need her love and still need her guidance. actually, we will need all of that for whole of our life.Right??

But, ayah always tell me that I am lucky. Even I have no mother besides me, I have uncles, aunties and cousins who's really close to me and love me until I never have feeling of emptiness without my Mother(but of course I do remember her!). One of them is my aunty whom called Aunty Milah. She is so idolized as a woman because she is not only good mother for her sons, but also a good mother for me. She is kind of perfect woman that I've ever met. I am not saying this because she is my aunty but this is really true. I had witnesses her difficulties to earn money for life and education of her sons until all of my cousins succeed in their life. In the difficulties, she also spent her time to visit my grandmother(who was staying with me that time), and to help her brothers(my uncles and ayah) in any issues.

With all the big responsible, she is still a loyal wife to her husband and she did her job very well without complaining.

I adore her spirit. she is so tough with all the responsibilities and difficulties in her life. she face it with patient.

 always hope and pray that i will have the same spirit as her. 

Of course, Ibu will always be a queen of my heart because she is the one who brought me into this world but my aunty is a great woman in my heart and an idol for me because she is the one who take care of me and my family until now.

 Aunty Milah with my cousin.
