Must Watch Videos!


Please watch in full screen.

Storytime @ the Library. We attend this once a week. This video was taken on Hari Raya Haji, and at the same time it was Costume Day at the Library.

As requested, Abah teached Feyruz to dance like Gangnam Style. His dancing moves improved much more since this video was taken.


Finally, Feyruz & Fayyad first sledding!

Tonsillectomy and Adenoidectomy


Since last summer, Feyruz has a sleeping problem. He would wake up in the middle of the night no matter what. Sometimes he cried, sometimes he scratched, and sometimes he just walked to our bedroom. At that time, he also had seasonal allergy – watery eyes, stuffy nose and frequent sneezing. So we thought that the
allergy was the culprit that he couldn’t sleep at night. He also had a few asthma attack episodes, and one time Amin had to rush him to the ER.

We went to see his doctor a few times when he was very miserable. Every time the doctor told us that he had a sore throat. And that was why he had all the mucus in his nose and throat. It took 3 weeks to get him better after taking the medicines. But a few weeks later, he throat hurt again.

Then came Fall and now Winter, and supposedly no more allergy problems. But Feyruz’ condition got worse. Now he woke up almost every hour after midnight. He just couldn’t sleep, and he snored very loudly. We can hear him snoring from behind close door.

After 6 months of miserable nights for all of us, 3 times he had sore throat, one time he got a high fever; we decided to go for a surgery to remove his tonsil and adenoid. It’s going to be a painful one, and I’m pretty sure he’s going to be really mad after the surgery.

Please make a doa that Feyruz will have a speedy recovery, and hopefully this will solve his sleeping problem.
