[A knight without armor]

It is ok for you to be cautious. The parents of the child should also be cautious. I am no doctor but I thought people with HIV or AIDS should be careful about picking up things from OTHER people. I would not want the tyke potentially swallowing pool water, etc. An infection or bug that a so-called normal person can handle can endanger someone with compromised immunity. I think.

That's the problem, why even risk it? Why not put my child in a cage with an old tiger that hasn't bit anyone for years? Because he just might.

My heart goes out to kids and people that gets this stuff....Jesus hung out with the lepers, I probably couldn't. But after all, that's why HE was Jesus and well, I'm an uncivilized superstitious barbarian. :-)
