Hello my daughter will turn 4 years old on 20 august and will therefore be 4 yrs and 10 days old when starting reception. However the problem we face now is that recently ahe had a bad attack of pneumonia alongwith lung collapse and was hospitalized for 10 days. Talks of intubation were going on but thankfully it didnt come to that. She is very susceptible to catching cold and flue even now. Since dec ( thats when she had pneumonia) she has already had another cold and is not up to her normal self. We are now wondering if we should use the provision for admission deferance for summer born children and let her continue ar her preschool for the next year. Has anyone had similar experiences and can you please let me know how you coped with them. Sorry for thw long post. I will be grateful for yoir advice in the matter :)
