DS2 (2.5) goes to nursery in the mornings. One of this little friends has recently been very ill - she was in hospital for a week.
Turns out that the poor little girl had a nasty bout of viral meningitis. Her mother didn't tell the nursery which I think is quite irresponsible.
I know that viral meningitis isn't treatable with antibiotics, but parents should be kept informed to keep a close eye on their own children/themselves.
We have a suspicion that DS2 has had it mildly and that DH has had it too. I am 29 weeks pregnant and would love to have been informed
DS will be seeing a Paediatrician for a checkup tomorrow and I will hold thumbs that I don't get it.
The nursery are very upset that they weren't told as they feel they should have had the opportunity to inform the parents. The mother obviously doesn't.
Arrghh...

To expect a parent to inform the nursery that their child has viral meningitis?
