My DS has brittle asthma and a blood disorder. He has symptoms every day and he is more unwell that not at the mo. He has been in hospital very poorly, with confirmed flu (positive test result - I say this because so many people say they have flu but it's a heavy cold), a secondary bacterial chest infection and it has triggered his asthma. He was on oxygen for 36 hours, hourly nebulisers, oxygen levels 87% without oxygen. We got out of hosp on weds. Tamiflu, antibiotics steroids etc etc. His asthma has settled now and he's over the flu symptoms, still cough, white as a sheet and wiped out. He seemed to have perked up so we came out for tea, but he's completely done in now, asleep in the car both ways and has gone straight up to bed to watch tv. He started being poorly a week ago thu night so he had fri off and then the whole of last week off school.
I'd originally said to school he'd be back on mon (tomorrow) but now I'm worried I'm pushing him too hard. I don't want to risk making him poorly again, but I'm conscious he's had lots of time off already. Part of me thinks bugger school, his health is more important. But on the other hand he struggles with school with dyslexia and a few other bits and bobs.
Id appreciate other people's thoughts please
