the father of my 5 year old son wants to take him to visit his very ill great-granddad in hospital. please understand, i ususally would have nothing against my son visiting hospitals or his great grandad, but this time is different. i found out last night that my son's great grandad has the virus MRSA. whenever anyone visits him, they have to wear a plastic apron and gloves, but not a face mask.
u hear all kinds of horror stories about this virus on the TV news, about how contagious and dangerous it is, especially to the elderly and young. what are your opinions on this ? would any of u let your young child visit someone with this illness ? i felt bad about saying that he can't go, but of course my main priority is the health and wellbeing of my little boy.
what would u do ?
