Alhamdulillah, my son has left the hospital and returned home.
Actually, he had complained of dizziness nearly a week before Eid al-Adha. So I took him to a clinic. But because he complained of dizziness and blurred vision, doctors thought he had problems with his eyes. Then the doctor gave him dizziness medicine and advised, if within three days my son still dizzy, then he should visit an ophthalmologist.
Three days later I took him to the ophthalmologist, but the ophthalmologist did not find any major problems, and just gave him eye drops. Frankly, I do not think he was stricken with typhoid because he did not feel sick in his stomach until Friday afternoon. On Saturday the situation has not improved. Sunday I began to suspect if he attacked by typhoid. But since Sunday is Eid al-Adha at my place, so I took him to the clinic at the hospital on Monday morning. And the diagnosis result, he was stricken with typhoid. Not bad, but still require hospitalization.
As I have mentioned, my son was hospitalized in Muhammadiyah, an Islamic hospital, where all the nurses wearing the hijab, and there is speaker in every room which patiens and their families can hear azan and sholat time reminder, also can hear Qur'an recitation and Islamic lecture.
Wa'alaikumsalam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh.Assalaamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuh,
Oh! This is a parent's worst nightmare: a serious threat to their child's life. But there is good news. While typhoid fever is a very serious threat if not treated, it usually responds well to antibiotics. The person usually starts to feel better within 2-3 days (according to the Centers for Disease Control).
You are all in my prayers (your younger boy must be feeling very anxious, too. Don't forget to take care of him and yourself, too, as well as your older son…).
May Allah, the Source of all good, Give you all health, and inner and physical strength.
:wasalam:
I really miss hearing the Azan from all directions.
Alhamdullilah at least your son is now recovering. Just needs time Insha'Allah
:wasalam:
Alhamdulillah, my son is now recovering, but he still need a rest at home.
By the way, if you lived in Muslim majority country you could hear Azan from every direction, brother.![]()
I remember in India, in our village we hear 15 adhans because we have 15 masjids. The adhans go on for about 15 - 20 minutes sometimes.![]()
