What a challenge. I'm always amazed by what people have to go through with their allergies, and I didn't know you and your family did. Maybe it will be like Melinda's case and get better. I hope so! You are strong!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04099853616488465874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3633977426784875178.post-18756977806106596512016-08-23T17:40:41.342-05:002016-08-23T17:40:41.342-05:00How could I not include a shout-out to my sis when...How could I not include a shout-out to my sis when brinner's involved?! :) It certainly would be a lot easier if food companies would put more effort into separating allergens in their processing, but hopefully they'll become more mindful over time since more and more people seem to be dealing with allergies.

I'm sure that makes it scarier when she gets sick, being limited on what she can be treated with.

I had no idea how common they were until it became a problem for us, and then lots of our friends and neighbors shared stories of their allergies with us. Thanks for the encouragement! I have heard a lot of kids outgrow egg allergies, which would be awesome! The peanut allergy is scarier, but egg is in SO many foods.

Food companies could make it a lot easier if their facilities kept things more contained during processing. I know I have learned a lot about food allergies from the experiences you have shared, and I am sure others have as well.

Our oldest is allergic to several kinds of antibiotics, which makes it difficult to treat illnesses like pneumonia, but it seems much easier to avoid medications than peanuts and eggs. . .

I have quite a few allergies, but they are rather mild compared to others in my family who have to take regular allergy shots just to get through life. There's good news though. I used to be allergic to both eggs and cow's milk when I was younger.
