Flu vaccine

As we will be travelling to Hong Kong next month and to give ourselves a peace of mind, I decided to enquire about the flu vaccine at the local GP. However, they have run out of stock! So I decided to go to the clinics around the neighourhood to enquire. Luckily the first clinic I came to have stock (just arrived this morning)!

So off we went to the clinic in the afternoon. It was crowded and we were no. 7 in the Q.... Sebastian was a bit cranky (I suppose it was his nap time), couldn't sit still and had to touch everything in the clinic! He made so much noise as I made him sit on the bench. Finally the clinic assistant directed us to a small room to wait for the doctor (so we jumped Q!). Doctor appeared in less than 5 mins :). She asked me to hold on to Sebastian, so that he wouldn't struggle too much. I gave him a small packet of marshmallow to distract him. Well, I must say he is a very brave boy! No fussing at all. I thihk he didn't even notice it when the doctor administered the vaccine. Thanks to the marshmallow! While we were waiting to pay, I asked him if it hurts, he said "no...."

He was tried when we got home....
