Tragic! I have a lot of allergies, I am thankful that none are this bad.
Always carry an epipen
The last 10 or 20 years I’ve heard so much about this peanut thing. I can’t remember a single case of the same thing going back through all my younger days, youth and childhood.
Another tragic story-——girl w/ a severe peanut allergy ate chili at a restaurant known for its chili.
She later had symptons but ignored them....she knew she hadn’t eaten peanuts.
What she did not know was that the restaurant thickened its famous chili w/ peanut butter.
Better stock up on peanut butter or peanuts for that matter before the guvimnt comes along and bans it.
Scientists think allergies are largely due to a lack of exposure during the early childhood years. As a result of not being exposed, the body interprets the signals from strange foods as though it is a virus that needs to be attacked.
The good news is that the body can be trained, including peanut allergies, to learn those things aren’t a danger to it.
I know of a woman who had a severe allergy to seafood/shellfish. She and her husband were on their second honeymoon at a seaside resort restaurant when a waiter walked by with a large platter of seafood. She had an allergic reaction and died right there. SHE DID NOT EAT ANY SEAFOOD. She died because of the platter carried by the waiter who passed by her.
How sad. Shouldn’t a boyfriend have known that about her?
She died because she was unfit
I’d be interested in knowing how many with weird allergies or other problems were delivered C-section? Read Dr. Perlmutters book, Brain Matters, and you’ll understand.
Sad. I know people who are allergic to dogs and one to grass.
What is it with this whole peanut thing?
Seems like we’re reading about severe peanut allergies every other day recently.
Really sad for this guy. He probably had no idea she had an allergy - just a sad, unfortunately situation. I pray he works through it and her family shows mercy.
