Children always seem to be more ill than others with tonsilitus or throat problems

Hello! Is there anybody out there in the same boat as me!!! My 7 yr old had her tonsils out a year ago because she got tonsilitus once a month. Now they have gone she still suffers from a temp and sore throat but not as bad and less frequently.

However my 5 year old is now getting frequent bouts and has been referred which is a good thing but between the 2 of them they have had so much time off of school because of their throats!!! Pretty much always their throats!! I'm sure the LEA are going to come and check up on me because of their absences!!

Their friends never seem to have time off and I'm feeling like a failure amongst the other mums constantly justifying their illness. They both eat well, sleep well, take multi vitamins when I remember. Is there anyone in a similar situation??? Perhaps you're more chilled than me about it!!
