The dreaded haze is back to haunt us.
Every year at about this time, smoke from primitive slash-and-burn activities in Sumatra, Indonesia blows over to Singapore, and it's hell on our respiratory systems. I'm exaggerating, but hey, we're losing the basic need for fresh air and breathing normally! My nose is stuffed up, it's hotter than usual, and we put up with the smell of a burning fire the whole day.
Vera's not taken well to it either, as I had expected.
She was up from 2-5am, struggling to breathe through her blockage. Daddy had the unenviable task of carrying her in the wee hours. Being more upright helps.
Arrgh! Some things (well, actually most things) are just beyond your control.

I am so sorry. I can't imagine how Vera must feel trying to breathe. What happened about the cpap or the bi-pap machine? I am so praying that this haze will disappear.
we r still wondering whether to fork out $350 for a new mask to try on her. what if she rejects it? that's lots of $ down the drain. also maybe we dread the adjustment period. too tired at night.
We hope the haze will go away soon or more rain ...
Oh May! How awful! Will be praying for rain and a strong wind blowing in the other direction. So sorry that little Vera has to suffer.
Ya...it's irritating my throat too! Hope Vera is feeling better!
