Sorry about peanut.....

- September 25, 2013, 09:42:20 PMToday at Mt Sinai . and that is our last tree-nut. He failed it a year or so ago, but passed today.
Which brings up a quandary. We are usually pretty happy for a pass. But reallly, passing or failing -- he cannot help his allergy -- hate to add to the feeling of failing when it happens -- like it did with peanut. So, not to put a damper on a happy post -- but always feel a little funny clapping him too hard on the back -- on the other hand -- it means he is safer and freerer.
Now we are just down to bad ole peanut. The allergist said she would challenge him if his bloodwrk and spt showed improvement in February despite testing postive to some of the true arh's on the component test. So, wondering if it is worth my camel-milk-chinese-herb-nutritional voodoo -- or just feed em pizza and nuggets and let nature do as it will with us.
But -- GOOD FOOD CHALLENGE !!!! and more hope.
