跪求翻译或语法分析

As it happens we had been having a number of cases of diphtheria in the school to which this child went during that month and we were all, quiet apparently, thinking of that, though no one had as yet spoken of the thing.
上文是说一个小女孩生病了，医生问她母亲有没检查她的喉咙，她母亲说没办法检查（因为小女孩不让她看）
这句话用的语法是自由间接引语,就等于是没有加引号的对话.跪求大大翻译一下,或者把这句话给改成比较容易理解的语序,谢谢~

在那个月里，我们在这个孩子的学校发现了很多白喉患者。虽然还没人跟我们说过这事，但是我们非常肯定疫情的存在。

It appears that a number of cases of diphtheria had been found in this child's school during that month. We were quiet apparently thinking of that, though no one had yet spoken a thing.

改成中国英语就逊色多了
