What in exact the operation is?

Carly,

No problem re picking up your #6161 Lego box.

Operation = 切扁桃腺 tonsils + adenoid (a lump at back of nose in air duct)
becos piglet's tonsils are vvvv large and swollen (even when he doesn't have sore throat)
ENT specialist (Dr Hui Y ) said becos of his weight + behaviour (snoring, sleeps face down) 99% chance he has sleep apnea 睡眠窒息症
which will ==> insuff oxygen to brain cells, constant use of brain cells cos on constant alert
==> affect growth, in adulthood will ==> high blood pressure, heart probl, etc etc.
So better do it now ==> better quality of sleep

che,
Thx. I don't know if your 3rd child has a lower chance getting into Victoria because of the withdrawal this time. But look at it this way, $4500 can buy 4 big sets of Lego

I am sure your kid prefers it!

BS,
Wow, piglet's situation sounds serious!!!!! I hope he is diagnosed properly. Did u consult public or private physicians? Public should be more unbiased cos they have to save every penny for the govt. Anyway, it's advisable to help piglet reduce weight too. Send him to swimming, 2 or 3 times a week. His bully problem may go away as well if he returns school as a prince charming :)

JsMami,

Ha, you're also counting in terms of Lego sets !

The ENT was in public hosp (SMO in QMH), now private. Also consulted my O&G (a friend and our family doc now). So Ok for piglet to do the op. Well, condition is as serious as for any other kid.

Piglet always says he perfers foooood to girls ga ! (Not that age yet.)

BS,

In that case, it's better to do the operation.

We failed in the draw of YMCA swimming class. it's just so easy to be occupied by members. The staff said there's even not enough seats for members! Hard time for me again, have to pick another one, indoor, save pool depth and Jun can go to the changing room together with me (heard that some of the swmming clubs do not allow boy of age 5+ to get into the girls changing room), but 5 is still too young to get changed and shower by himself!

hi junjunmama,

What don't you join YMCA as members? For a family, the joining fee is $2000 (one-time) and annual fee is 800 for the whole family. You can then enjoy lower course fees and discounts when visiting the restaurants and bookshops. Course fee for a member is usually at least $100 cheaper. So, if you join swimming courses for 3 times a year, you will have saved up at least $300. Moreover, there are a lot of other ECAs to choose among.

For swimming course, members can get a seat easier. Moreover, if you are a member and after you started the swimming class, it will be easier for you to get a seat as you advance.

Carly,

TST YMCA swimming summer classes are usually vvvvvvv full ga.
Piglet usually stops swimming in summer hols, then join again in Sept/Oct quarter.
Last year piglet couldn't get a place even in Sept/Oct, the results were no longer valid and he had to take a test in Jan ==> had to repeat same class cos he swam v badly.

It is usually easier to join in Jan - some parents feel it is tooo cold for kids to swim in Jan. But actually the pool is warm water pool and the changing rooms all have heaters, so v hot inside.

Yes the family changing rooms are the best feature cos you can help your kid to change too.

If Jun is already 6y then he can join as junior member by himself, very cheap.

No problem on buying the books. I am interested in the Lego books too...

But I have a big problem at home. I just found the water leakage problem in my bathroom this morning. Water leaks out along the foot of the wall... Don't know the cause yet. 今次大件事啦!

Any recommendations of good plumber or 裝修師傅?

GN4,

Our 裝修師傅 is big pig's friend, not expensive, but usually lut lut lau lau. Can ask him if you can't find anybody more trustworthy. Don't dum ball jung.

TCS is also having water leakage problem, worse, cos it is from underground water.

Do you think yours is a problem with pipe / duct or 防水層 ?
From your own pipes or from above ?

Hi BS,

Thanks for your help.

No smell, no colour. I guess the leakage is from the clean water pipe gwa? Moreover, the water is from the foot of the walls, I guess the leakage problem is not from upstairs, but probably from the floor of the bathroom.

My "lo yea" has just managed to find someone for debugging i.e. finding out the cause of the problem. He's checking now. Don't know the status yet.

May need to have a major home renovation. Big deal!! Find a temp flat, pack things, move out, renovate, move in, unpack, clean up, .... A lot to be done. Can't imagine.
