[tri-med] Re: Immunizations

Hi Manjit and Gina,  My daughter has full T18 and is now 2 1/2 years old.  
First of all, she never had any problems with siezures so  I'm not sure how 
that relates.  She did have all of her immunizations given from the time she 
was 2 months and is now up to date until she needs whatever shots they get 
before going to school.  She has had Hepatitis B shot, DT&P, H influenza, 
Chicken pox, polio, MMR, RSV and pnuemonia shots.  I think they just 
adjusted the dosage to her weight.  She only weighed 3lb 11oz at birth and 
is now only 17lb so I know they didn't wait until she weighed a certain 
amount before they gave any shots. She has never had any reactions to any 
either.  Good luck.

Julie, mother to Camryn 2 1/2 full T18
