My 18yr old son is going to Zante at the end of July with a group of friends. He’s has a nut allergy, he does have an epi pen. I put this on Shorthaul and one MN told me about translation cards so I’ve got them.
He is 18 so has got by when I’ve not been there but there will alcohol involved on holiday and I’m not sure he will be as careful.
Anyone any experiences?
I’m already worried about it. I’ll be neurotic that week he’s away!!!

Thank you for your response. Good to hear from someone with other first holiday concerns. Glad he’s having a good time.
I’ve spoke to his friends about the epipen much to my DS’s disgust and interestingly another friend has a pen for Crohn’s disease so all in it together.
Can I ask what insurance you got? I’ve looked at Stayinsured they cover anaphylaxis so thought that best.
Thanks again everyone Flowers
