Timothy has Chronic Granulomatous Disease , a disorder which makes him unable to handle most bacterial and fungus infections. He has it due to a unknown mutation in his genes upon conception. The faculty and staff at Timmys school should feel absolutely free to share this information with any parent who they might feel be concerned. Here are a few suggestions given to me from other parents of CGD children who are active in some sort of extracurricular activity. Please try to notify me if there is any illness - bacterial or viral infection going around Timothys Constant Contact group.
Viral infections can sometimes develop into secondary bacterial infections.
We will then be able to make the appropriate measures concerning Timothy. Under no circumstances do we need to know who specifically is ill. We would consider that an invasion of another familys privacy. Should Timothy have an injury please try and handle it the same way as with any other child. Timothy will need all scrapes and cuts washed with an antibacterial soap and cleaned with betadine.
