1/2/2023

4 Comments

 
 I would like to take this time and remember some of the recent and not so recent deaths that have occurred from food allergies. These are just some of the reported cases. It is very sad that there have been so many and yet we have not heard about most of them.

Thank you for reading and sharing. The more we talk about it, the more others around us will too.  If you scroll down to the bottom of this page, you can view some of their pictures.

This is so sad and scary to read ... thinking of all these families! Our little girl is just coming up to 5 years old and has a severe milk and egg allergy. When she has had reactions in the past they have resulted in hives all over her body and her face swelling up in particular. We have not been prescribed an epi-pen but always worry what if the next time she has a reaction it is even more severe e.g. affects her breathing or even worse etc. Does anyone have any experience to reactions that differ in severity or the importance of having an epi-pen? Thank you

I just cried my eyes out so sad you lost your daughter. I have triplet daughters. One fraternal and two identical. Aleah has a peanut tree nut allergy. She had an allergic reaction to peanut oil fries were cooked in at Penn Station. She also had a reaction before that to Reese puffs cereal. I try not to but I worry about her allergy. There are so many uneducated about this that do not take it seriously, which makes it so hard. Thank you for mentioning Zolar. I will look into that! I haven’t fed my other two girls peanuts because I am afraid she will have a reaction due to them having it on their hands or mouths kissing her or something happening which isn’t good. I need to rethink this so they don’t develop an allergy. Both of my identical twin daughters have eczema. One flares up in the winter and Aleah with peanut tree nut allergy flares up in the warmer months. I don’t know why this is. Praying for your family for strength and healing. So sorry from the bottom of my heart for your loss.
