Having a child with food allergies can be tough. I started this blog, named for the question I get most often. The one thing that has helped more than anything during this year is to talk to and read about other families, their struggles and their successes. Hopefully this will pay it forward.
I am the mother of three beautiful children. My older two children do not currently, nor have they ever to my knowledge had food allergies. When my third child was just 3 and a half months old, he had his first allergic reaction to egg. Since that time we have discovered more allergies (food and other) and I have taken a major crash course on raising a child with food allergies.
I hope that our story will help those that are beginning their own food allergy stories to more easily navigate this path and help grandparents, aunts, cousins, and other family members understand the daily struggles of having a child with food allergies.
