The Doctor is not IN!

Philippines
November 1, 2016 4:03pm CST
A few hours before I went to sleep, we received a call from my brother and learned their kid is vomiting. I gave them the number of the hospital but they were asking for the Doctors personal number, which I don't have. I couldn't sleep thinking of nephew, not to mention I learned from the staff that He won't have a clinic till saturday Maybe Doc was visiting dead relatives. He's been inviting us to attend to his farm for quite sometime now, wished we had gone along with it. Hope my sis in law finds another hospital or a doctor to have him check.

A kid puking is not a big deal unless there are other symptoms.

I don't hear about him puking much recently, so I think for now it's kinda big deal to me @Mike197602

@Letranknight2015 that's fair enough...but puking isn't a big deal in my experience. I lived and looked after all my nieces and nephews...one nephew and three nieces. Being sick isn't a big deal unless it is repeated vomiting or accompanied by other symptoms.

@Letranknight2015 didn't hear about it...so you're not looking after/responsible for them....then don't worry.

I don't know she had another doctor in mind, but for me, I just know one particular doctor and obviously not available in emergencies @Hatley

Hopefully your nephew gets better Is there a hospital doctor you can reach if he doesn't feel better after a day or so? Or you can look up home remedies.

Hello @infatuatedbby Not sure if they knew some home remedies, but I hope she had done something because there wasn't an available doctor as of the moment.

This is always a tough one. Some doctors have an associate on call if they are not available.

This is the only one doctor that we have always relied upon, except we never tried calling him on emergencies @PatZAnthony

@PatZAnthony Well, I had him listed this morning but the other doctor isn't going to be there until noon, with confirmation.

@Letranknight2015 Hope everything turned out okay for you nephew. An ill child is no fun for anyone, especially the child.

That's what I wonder because they could have taken him over there instead @amadeo

I hope your nephew is okay. Hopefully this will just be one of those 24 hour sickness bugs that kids often get, which seem absolutely horrendous and worrying at the time but are quickly over. As long as he is not getting dehydrated.

Hello @5thHouse She hasn't respond yet, but I'm sure they didn't get a sound sleep. Much more when I told her later that night about what the staff just texted. that's the problem with them, they don't drink much.
