[quote=Anonymous]We signed my 4 year old up for camp at Headfirst in January and when we filled out all the paperwork, he had no medical issues. Late February rolls around and he has a seizure and is then diagnosed with epilepsy and given a rescue medicine in the event that he has a seizure longer than five minutes (as his first one was). We were also given instructions to always be within arms length of him while swimming. Headfirst has swimming as part of their program, and the ratio is 1:2, so I'm not actually worried about his safety, but I have emailed the camp twice in the last two weeks asking if they are able to accommodate him and there has been no response. He attended this camp last year and while we liked it, I definitely got the impression it is run by college kids. Any advice for next steps if they continue to refuse to respond, or if they give a less than reassuring "we can handle this"? Thanks so much.[/quote]
