Guest guest Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 As our eldest son is severely autistic, adhd, partial epilepsy - we actively chose not to vaccinate our two younger boys at all. Interestingly, our local doctors surgery made no complaint about this at all. Now our 11 year old is due to go off on a school trip in May and we are being asked whether or not he has had a tetanus jab and if so, when it was. This is the moment of truth - he knows he has not had one, and is desperate not to be excluded from the trip - if it comes to that. This is a new school to us so we don't know if they will be reasonable about the lack of tetanus. Unusually, for me (Mandi I can hear you laughing from Dorset) I have lost my nerve and simply do not know what to do. My strong instinct tells me that Tetanus is not a good one for our children or their siblings - this particular child is small for his age and has a decidedly dodgy immune system. HELP!!! What can I do? Alison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
