i thought i would add a little more about the meeting.
this meeting was fantastic because we had some medical proffesionals give up their free time to come. But what was really great was the fact that james and nina are people who live our allergy lives.
Nina is the parent of a food allergic child, and James is a adult with food allergy.
meetings like this give us a chance to:
meet other parents who have children with similar alleriges.
to meet parents who are that one step ahead of you, perhaps those starting nursery, school or uni.
to ask those questions of others, ie how do you go to resturants?
travel?
school trips, and other family social occasions etc.
medical questions , explained environmental allergies, asthma , when to use epi pens, what are the serious signs, and future cures.
This list just goes to show the important voluntary work that lara and others do, and personally i am very grateful that i attended that meeting, so, thank you lara.
