Today our journey to Singapore began with all of us getting immunization shots! We got the flu and the Hep A. We were going to also get the typhoid, however the Dr at Patient First told us we didn't need it so....we are on our way!
Miriam had a really hard time with it and was nervous from the time we said 'we need to get shots!' She screamed and was tense and then she looked at the syringe and that was it, she went flying off my lap and it took Carlos and I to hold her...but wait there is more..that was just for the flu...then we went to get the Hep A. They don't do that one in the arm so she had to lay down and have it in her leg! That was even worse, it took like 3 nurses and me and Carlos to keep her still enough to get the shot!! Wow!
Elaine was pretty nervous but was calm and cried only when the needle went in and then she was totally fine! The second time however she struggled! She HATES being held down. I think she would have stayed still had they given us the chance to talk to her about it. She understands the "do you want us to do it the hard way, or are you going to stay still?" What a trooper!
Anyway, we all got them and so far, we are all well! :)
Again, I was going to take some pictures to start our memories...but forgot!
