TBH I have no idea why anyone would keep a genuinely terminally ill child in school anyway. What a waste? Unless they want to be there with their friends, I suppose. If one of my children, god forbid, genuinely only had months or years to live I would be making sure they get to experience as much of life as possible in that time. Not stuck in a grey building with grey people 5 days a week.
