FAAN Walk

We participated in the Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis walk this past October. Anna was diagnosed shortly before the walk with a milk allergy. We had always suspected an allergy since she vomited with cheese and yogurt but she also began to have hives after drinking milk. A skin test proved the positive results and an allergist gave us an epi pen. It has been interesting figuring out what to give her and what not to but for now we are staying away from anything that contains milk. Hoping that she will out grow it when she is rechecked soon.

Bella and Anna's cousin, Jackson, is severely allergic to nuts so we were there supporting Jack's Pack too.
We had lots of fun doing the walk, getting free goodies and info, playing on the playground, and doing lunch afterwards at the Piccadilly.
