Sam wakes up when he feels someone is wiping his diaper area and hears a nursery humming sound. He blinks a bit to adjust his eye to the surrounding light. " Someone has decided to wake up now finally, good morning sweety ". Amanda cooed. Sam stirred and tried to sit up but then he felt something was holding him. " Hold on for a moment sweetheart, I will release you after your diaper change ".
When Sam's eye adjusted he saw that he was in Lily's room and strap in at Lily's changing table and he wondered " How come I'm already here? ". Then he asked his mom, " Mom, did you carry me from my bedroom to Lily's room? ".
" Yes sweetie, don't worry about it because you are very light to carry beside I don't want to wake you up ", Amanda replied while finishing cleaning.
" But you could just shake me up for a change ". Sam whines.
" And disturb that cute sleepy face? No I would not ". Amanda chirped. " Beside we need to get ready for your appointment ".
" What appointment mom? ". Sam.
" Well we need to check you, this is the fourth day in a row that you wake up wet sweety, I just don't want you to get sick so we need to check it up ".
" Oh ".
Amanda proceeds to put underwear on her son then release him from the strap and put him down on the floor and hold his hand. " Let's go to your room, put on some pants and go down for breakfast, how that's sound ". Amanda asks.
" Okie ". That is the only sound that escapes from Sam's mouth.
The ride to the clinic is faster than expected. Kyle and Lily were at the house because they were still asleep when Amanda and Sam left. When they arrive at the parking in front of the clinic. Amanda holds Sam's hand and walks together inside.
When Sam's name was called they went inside to see the doctor which the doctor had seen since they were still infants.
" Hello Amanda, long time no see, so you brought your kids for a medical checkup? ".
" Hello Catherine, it's been a long time no see also since Lily's last checkup, " Amanda responded. " Actually yes I would like you to check my sweet boy Sammy ".
" Oh! hello there Sammy " doc Catherine smiling and waving.
Sam is an embarrassed person when it comes to Catherine because she is a very pretty woman and she seem always talks to him like talking to a toddler when he is actually 12 years old already and many kids who come here will call her by the nickname 'Doctor Cat'.
" Hello Doctor Cat " Sam responds blushed and hides a bit behind his mother.
" Oh, still a shy person I see, " Doctor Catherine giggled a bit.
Doctor Catherine faces back to Amanda and says " So what brings you here? ".
Amanda talks in a small voice to avoid embarrassing her son " Well actually this time I come to check on Sam because lately he wakes up in the morning having a wet bed ".
" Are you already asking if he has been bullied at school? ".
" Yes, already ask him but he says no, and he has kind lately seemed to be mumbling like a scared person when he falls asleep ".
" Ok, let me check him psychically first ".
Doctor Cat asks Sam to lay down at the examination table before checking him. After a few minutes she done checking Sam and she sit back on her chair and talk to Amanda.
" Well good news, he's healthy ". Catherine said and added more " You did say lately happening, how long actually has this wetting happened? ".
" Today is the 7th day he woke up wet ". Amanda replied.
Catherine seems to be taking notes while listening to Amanda's story " Can I ask for Sam to sit outside this room a bit so my colleague can keep an eye on him for a bit because I need to ask something but don't want Sam to hear our conversation ". Catherine pleaded.
" Sure can ". Amanda.
Doctor Cat walked toward Sam and with a tender voice she spoke to Sam. " Hey sweetie can you wait outside for a moment? I need to talk to your mommy for a bit ".
" I can wait outside, " Sam replied.
Catherine walks Sam outside and talks to her colleague to watch for him a bit while she talks to his mother and walks back in and closes the door.
" So what is it? ". Amanda.
" Well I think nothing is happening to Sam on the outside, but maybe it is from the inside ".
" Inside? Like a disease? ".
" No, I mean inside like mentally not physically like maybe it was a phase ".
" Oh ".
" Has he talked to you about anything? ".
" Yes but only about the school he say he was the shortest in his class and he said that some of his classmates teased him about like a toddler, something like that because of his height but he doesn't care ".
Catherine still noting all the notes the she deem important for her patient details.
" So it only happen when he asleep right? ". Catherine asks again.
" Yes, only when he asleep, well I already take action by putting him in diaper to keep his bed dry. I suppose to buy him the pull up but as long as I remember he was always has pee a lot when he still toddler so I'm afraid of leaking ". Amanda replied.
" Oh, that was a smart decision. But how was he accepted to wearing a diaper. I bet his will embarrassed if his little sister know he was wearing a diaper ".
" At first he was scared that Lily's will know he was back wearing it, but it seem Lily's already saved the day by telling she will always love his big brother no matter what ".
" That is a sign you raise your children in the correct way that is good for you Amanda ".
" Yes I'm proud to be their mother ".
" Ok listen, just keep what are you doing right now, But if Sam condition getting worse you can come to me ".
" Ok Catherine ".
After that Amanda and Sam was back home doing their routine but Kyle asking Amanda what the doctor say.
" Well it seem like we will just need to monitor him if this will keep happening or become worse we will comeback to see the doctor " Amanda replied to her husband.
" Well if that is the doctor say, we just wait and see " Kyle.
