Raising Awareness

My son's daycare had a Fall Festival this week. I decided to pay for a vendor table in order to raise awareness about the severity of food allergies. I think the school was happy since they had been having problems with some parents not following the rule of no outside food allowed. I gave away some chocolate chip cookies and brownies that I make without milk, eggs or nuts. I had my son's Epi-Pen on display along with a trainer for peple to try. I had handouts that FAAN was able to ship to me in time for the Festival including some to sign up for the Food Allergy Walk November 13th. I handed out some cards that have our blog spot to people who knew someone with a food allergy. I was really surprised how many people actually knew someone with a severe food allergy.

First Meeting

Our first meeting went well. We shared food brands, cook books, photos of our children, stores we shop at and our experiences. I look forward to meeting more people and creating a support group for the city of Fort Worth.
