Challenge Begins

Today we got the final confirmation. Our son has G6PD deficiency, a disease that caused by a defect in his gene which still has no cure today. We'll have to be very careful not to let him contact certain food and medicine that can cause accute reactions or even endangers his life. We got a reminder card to present to doctors when he goes to a hospital from now on. He's also not allowed to take medicines not prescribed by a doctor. Maybe he just wants to make sure he'll get enough attention from his parents, nannies and teachers.
