Thank you.
In Ohio, if you want to be absolutely safe, you should file something with the court ordering the visitation to alter the scheduled visitation until the doctor says the child is capable of visiting. Otherwise, if the other party brings a contempt action, the doctor's orders would be a pretty good defense, but who knows how a court is going to rule sometimes.
