Jay Mark is one of our scholars. He is in grade 2. During the summer holidays he was complaining about pain in his back and upper legs. In the first weeks of school the pain got worse and his bones became swollen. He was skipping lessons because of the pain.

Sparrow brought Jay Mark to the doctor but she is uncertain of the cause. It could be tuberculosis of the bone, but the X-ray does not confirm this diagnosis. Tuesday 26 July the doctor will give Jay Mark a skin test to see if this will confirm her idea of tuberculosis. If the skin test is negative then we will have to make a MRI.
