Old Guy's Hypothetical

A grandfather was in today to co-sign for his granddaughter's student loan. Curious about How the loan works in the event that the student would have to withdraw due to sicknesses caught by her brood, the grandfather offered up this scenario (no joke):

'...say the children all get--say-- Whooping Cough?'

Don't hear about that much anymore...but evidently a common occurrence in his life experiences.

Perhaps his family have a genetic disposition for Whooping Cough?

I'll have to remember to ask next time, eh?
