hi everyone! Thanks for the warm welcome.
Hi Epi! Is that sebastian in your profile picture???
Chloe looks very similar too! Smaller head, full head of hair, small chin and an addictive smile!
Well chloe was diagnosed with a very general term microcephaly from the bunch of uncompassionate cold blooded commercialised doctors (sorry i got no respect for them- but since early days we found at least doctors who aren't like that and are good)
what we know about chloe from her ct & mri scans initially is she has a smooth brain without the 'curves & valleys' on the surface and her brain size is smaller than usual. Shes overall gdd and need complete assistance and care, but being a small sized girl (7kg @ 4 yr old) she resembles a 6 mth old child, only taller. We got to deal with her seizures fr 3 months old and poor chloe has already been hospitalized 3 times including once in picu. But after picu we met a good doctor at NuH whom managed to control chloe's seizures successfully with epilim (sodium volproate), clobazam (diazepam family) and phenobarbitone. other than the occassional seizure and grumpiness which we resolve it with anal diazepam, everything else is fine. (we just want good health and peace for chloe, nothing else), oh in case you all want to know the doc, shes Professor Low Poh sim of NUH Clinic A.
There isn't an accurate diagnosis for chloe as we didn't want her to go thru anymore tests. & to be frank what purpose would it serve other than getting answers, we prefer to leave it to god.
Truth is, it really is a terrible financial burden looking after our kids and the lak of support is horrendous. I can imagine that these problems are commonplace.
But no matter what problems, she still our girl and our angel and we believe she fully understands the situation and can feel our love for her, so please never give up! We should be proud to be parents of a special child, cos only special parents will get a chance to have a special child...
