Got Milk??

Here is a picture of Blake after Eric accidently gave him some Milk last Saturday. He wasn't thinking and poored the boys cereal in the morning. He turned around and Blake may have had time to maybe take two bites. All the sudden Blake became hysterical and started screaming. His face swelled up within a matter of seconds. Eric new right away what had happend. He gave him some Zyrteg and Blake calmed down and was able to breathe better. We had the epi-pen ready just in case we needed to use it. Luckily we didn't. These pictures were taken about 45 minutes after it all, once everything calmed down. So they don't show you had bad it got at first. But you can still tell that even two teaspoons of milk effected the little guy big time. Poor guy.

holy milk allergy, Batman! That would be enough to set me on edge at all times! The place we held a Family Reunion this summer had a place to drop the youngsters so adults could have fun ~ run poorly, in my opinion ~ and even scarier now that I understand what a dairy allergy can do. The second time I took Dana there, she had her milk cup in her hand; placed it on the floor so she could play with a toy; another girl came and picked the cup up and was going to drink from it. I noticed just as I saw her name on the "important messages" board that she had a dairy allergy. I yelled at the girls working there (and their supervisors), but I had no idea how serious it really could have been...

PS Glad he's ok and you didn't need the epi pen! I had a scare the other day when Catie grabbed Jenna's peanut butter sandwich off the table. I wasn't sure if she got a bite of it or not but my heart almost stopped when I realized she had it. Thankfully she was fine, I didn't have to give her any benadryl.

I'm glad he's alright. That is how my sister is with her allergies. She's had to use her epi-pen a few times and it's just scary! Poor little guy. I hope he's feeling better!

Poor guy. Allergies like that are the scariest. Glad he's better.
