Ep 27: Halloween Food Allergy Tips | Food Allergy Talk

On this episode of Food Allergy Talk, I welcome the two oldest of my 5 children – Stetson and Isabella. Stetson is 14 going on 15, and anaphylactic to 9 foods. Isabella is 12 and as far as we know she has no known food allergies. The reason we say as far as we know, this Spring we purchased a giant box of peaches and while enjoying one of her favorite fruits she had a slight reaction. We aren’t sure if it was oral allergy syndrome, a fluke thing and maybe a reaction to any pesticides sprayed… we are now in the process of working with an allergist to determine where she is food allergy-wise. Being just a couple years apart, these two have been best buddies since they were little and have shared a childhood together. I wanted to have Stetson on to tell us about Halloween from his perspective as a child growing up with food allergies, and Isabella as a sibling growing up with a brother with life-threatening food allergies.
