My husband's aunt passed away over the weekend. We are making plans to go to the funeral. My sister said she would watch the kids while we go to the funeral. I typed out a list of meds, will show her how to do the nebs etc. But she mentioned her husband has a "bad cold". She said he's not coughing. She has a history and tendency to down play when her kids/she is sick for fear of us not coming to visit. Just feeling nervous about sending Maggie there if my sis is already admitting the cold is "bad". In any event my husband will go irregardless. I briefly spoke with my husband about it; he said we should play it by ear. He said the last thing his aunt would want is to put Maggie in harm's way and all the family understand we have a child with special needs.. But we should leave tomorrow so I need to decide tonight. GIve me your input! Thanks

Thats a hard one. I guess I would try to figure out how much contact she really would have with him. Does he work during the day? How well are your kids trained in washing their hands frequently? Would your sister get everyone to wash hands frequently? Then I would also look at the fact that the weather is nicer so they are not couped up in the house all day with him as well. How much time will they spend outside?
Then I would consider how easily she tends to catch things from others.
Under these circumstances, I would probably go with my husband to give him the support. If it were winter time, probably not. I would also consider where the child was at current time, healthy?, a little sick themself?, what antibiotics are they currently on?, stuff like that.
Sorry, I am probably adding more questions then helping. Hope it all works out for you,

I think I'd consider everything Patty said, but I think when my DS was 5 I'd just forget it. Now that she's almost 12 I know she's very capable of taking care of infection control herself and I'd let her go unless the cold was really really bad. Who knows what really bad is tho...
