We went through something similar with my daughter. She reacted to the first round of shots. She got retested by an allergist to confirm. My family DR granted us an exemption for all vaccines except the MMR so we needed a personal exemption for that one. When she started school we handed both forms in.

A few years ago we decided to try again with the vaccines and my DR let us know that there is no “catch up” schedule. The 2 MMR shots have to be given within two months of each other but other than that they can have the rest in one day if we chose. She got all of her shots within two weeks.

Just sharing my story because the mom might be confused about what she needs and where to get it and maybe her DR told her there was no catch up schedule. I am a pretty proactive parent and was able to figure it all out before my kid started school but it is confusing. I would just be clear about what she needs to provide before care begins.
