My sister could really use some T&P, she just found out her 4 year old son is moderately to severely allergic to oats, peanuts, corn, green peas, soy, pork, almonds, barley, green beans, cantaloupe, carrots, celery, oranges, peaches, pecans, sesame seeds, summer squash, and strawberries including their products and things made with them. Due to this positive reactions, he is to avoid all tree nut also.
My sister's family is vegetarians so this is going to be a big change for them to cut out all these veggies and fruits and nuts and seeds. The big one is corn also which corn is in basically everything (even shredded cheese which was surprising to me!). They are having my nephew tested for eosinophilic esophagitis which we are really praying that he doesnt have. They are meeting with a nutritionist to make sure he is going to be able to get everything he needs with all these foods cut out and being a vegetarian. Any and all T&P's would be appreciated!
Oh and I know there are quite a few food allergy mamas on here-- any good links I could pass her way?
Re: T&P for my sister
Oh no!!! Thoughts and prayers coming their way!
I joined the Cincy Childrens EE group on Facebook. Katelyn was tested for EE, but was negative. If you sister wants to talk about anything related to allergies (including EE), please have her contact me!
