kindergarten is the cause of your daughter's frequent colds coupled by her questionable personal hygiene and social commitments to her many friends. the average child gets 6-9 viral infections (mostly colds) per year and most are in the winter months. when children are plunged into a new environment with new kids they get new germs. there are over 200 different viruses that cause the common cold so until she pays her dues. and gets enough colds to build her immunity she will be be catching her share (and bringing them home to her family). in most cases your daughter doesn't have a mysterious weak immune system. all she has is over-exposure to children her same age all with the same questionable hygiene. the play together. touch each other (and everything else) and they are taught to share. germs are freely shared. she will improve over time but you are going to see un upswing of illnesses after the holidays because her colleagues are traveling to different locations where they will pick up even newer and more-alien bugs and bring them back to kindergarten to share. again. hang in there. medical providers can do little to prevent cold and nothing to cure them. all we can do is treat symptoms watch for complications and wait them out.
