DD has peanut and tree nut allergies which we carry epipens for. This is the first time we will have flown since her diagnosis and first time to Spanish speaking country (previously we've had a couple of days in France but as I speak a little French I felt more confident).
I speak no Spanish other than hello/yes really (terrible I know!) so would really appreciate some help in getting together some shortish phrases that explain that dd is allergic to nuts and the severity of this allergy, also to ask "does this contain nuts? and useful phrases in Spanish in case of an Emergency.
Also if there are any Spanish people here or people who are very au fait with Spanish food are there any foods/dishes that might have nuts in them that might not be obvious? Words for nuts in Spanish that might be used on food packaging would be helpful too.
I know I can get some of this info from the net but I'm really looking for some reassurance and personal experiences about things to watch out for.
TIA
