Guest guest Posted December 16, 2003 Report Share Posted December 16, 2003 I'm surprised Abbie's pediatrician didn't recommend the flu shot for her. (ds) had heart surgery as an infant and Grace has asthma. Both my kids are considered higher risk and the pediatrician sends out a postcard in October reminding me to get flu shots for them. I'm thinking, a child under 2 with Down Syndrome (smaller respiratory-tract passages and susceptible to bronchitis, ear infection, pneumonia that non-DS kids) who has had open-heart surgery within the last 6 months???? By God, I'm saving her a dose. Even if she is my grandkid. I would even if she weren't my gandkid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
