[QUOTE="Josie, post: 394546, member: 1792"] I would put a lot of weight on what your son thinks. While his teacher now thinks he is capable of more, she is seeing him away from the stress and anxiety of school, and not getting the whole picture. I do think he should do as much as he possibly can, but with health problems, sometimes people can't do as much as they could otherwise. Part of having a chronic illness is knowing how best to manage your time so you don't overdo it and make things worse. I think your son and you are in the best position to decide where that line is. I would do everything possible to keep him in lacrosse, though. He wants to do it and it is too easy to lose social connections when you are at home not feeling well. If you decide that he goes back to school with a reduced load, maybe he could keep the French since he likes it and take Biology in the summer. [/QUOTE]
