Aww... thanks for the votes of confidence and sympathies! Luckily kiddos allergies aren't life threatening ones... he is only at level 2 of 5 (except for carrots, which are a level 3)... however his ENT doc said that they could get worse or they could go way if we remove them from his diet... he will need to be tested again in a year.
The hardest is that people don't understand how someone can be allergic to apples or carrots... peanuts and wheat they understand - the others really throw them for a loop... Jake has been taking this news like a champ - we were at Sam's Club today and they were giving out pizza samples... it was lunch and he was hungry... I told him that he can't have something because it has wheat and he is cool with that... I'm just amazed at his maturity about this - he is only 6!
