PBMT - Day 109

Papa had a day off and kept us company to DK for Adrian's second physio session. It's good that Papa got a chance to see how much Adrian had enjoyed the session. Mama, on the other hand, met with a social worker in the same building about arranging Early Childhood Education for Adrian. Apparently, the waiting period for government subsidized Early Childhood Education is estimated to be around 10 - 12 months. Adrian may not need the training by then but we figured it won't hurt to be put on the waiting list. The social worker also advised the shortage of Speech Therapists at DK causes a long waiting list as well. So with several phone calls and a few pamphlets from the social worker, we have registered Adrian in Caritas to start Speech Therapy in May. The fee is quite pricy but we figured it'll be all worth it in the end if it helps. Shortly after we got home and fed Adrian, we headed out again for another doctor appointment for Adrian. We took Adrian to see a TCM doctor again to see if any Chinese herbal medicine might help for his recovery. The TCM doctor has prescribed Adrian two doses of Chinese herbs, not sure if he's willing to drink it but we'll make it for him next week after this week's Accutane.

May I know the name of your Chinese doctor? do you think TCM helped Adrian at all?

Hi Aud, the name of Adrian's Chinese Doctor is Dr. Bing Zhong Chen. Adrian has been seeing him for 1.5 years and I think it helps. The chinese herbs is supposed to regulate & cleanse his body, yet strengthen his immune system. And I do think Adrian is healthier and stronger than before. Hope it helps. Pls email me at adrian.k.au@gmail.com if you want the contact info for the doctor. Thanks.
