Son: Sep 2026(for 1y 3m): Vitiligo Treatment
120th – Sep 7
Several changes have occurred this month. The children are now attending an after-school program at a different elementary school, as their current school does not offer one. This new schedule means my children are going to bed an hour later.
Additionally, the train timetable has been slightly altered. I recall an instance where we arrived at 3:37 PM, and after my son’s quick laser treatment, we rushed to catch the 4:05 PM train back home. While we managed to make it as planned, the experience was quite stressful. The thought of catching the 4:05 PM train always made me feel hectic. Rushing to Dongdaegu station with my son and me was a challenge, as we strived not to miss the train.


121st – Sep 11
My day followed its usual routine, but my son began complaining of a toothache after we stepped off the train to the clinic. I initially thought the pain was temporary, but he insisted it was severe enough to make him cry. I promptly called the pediatric dental clinic we had visited a few weeks ago to request an immediate appointment.
Fortunately, they had an opening, even though I expected a long wait. I was relieved to see the dentist without much delay. After examining his teeth and taking an X-ray, the doctor determined there was no damage. The pain was simply caused by a new molar coming in, and the doctor advised using a painkiller when necessary. It proved to be effective, as his pain subsided soon after we returned home and he took the medication. I am glad I could react quickly when the situation required it.

122nd – Sep 18 (with Fatima hospital)
It has been an incredibly long and difficult day for me. I am seeking a second opinion for my son because he has had a persistent cough for a month. Although he has seen our local pediatrician and taken medication, the relief is only temporary and the coughing has not stopped. This makes me concerned about his lung health and overall well-being.
Today, I had to coordinate his dermatology appointment, which included laser treatment, with a rush to see the other specialist immediately afterward by taxi. I struggled to focus on my tasks, as my mind was occupied with calling cabs, attending appointments, booking train tickets, and coordinating with my other children upon arrival at Yeongcheon station.
I feel as though I have been in a blur all day, and I am completely exhausted now that I am finally home preparing for bed.

123rd – Sep 21
it is the first time to catch up ITX-saemaeul train to come back home after visiting dermatology clinic. there are two diferent time schedules after laser treatment at 2pm are 3:15pm and 4:05pm. both of them take about same amount of time to arrive. only different thing is type of train and ticket price.


124th – Sep 28
It was a peaceful journey to the clinic with my son, and there were no unusual incidents during our trip. I sent a text message to his teacher requesting to pick him up at 12:50 p.m., just as regular classes conclude, so we could catch the 1:00 p.m. public bus; however, his school day typically ends around 12:55 p.m. forgetting that my previous appointments over the last few months had been at 4:00 p.m. Circumstances seem to change every time.
