[quote=Anonymous]OP, thank you for responding and confirming that you are going to start taking this much more seriously. That’s good to hear, but I urge you to really be vigilant, really do reframe your thinking about this. I had a neighbor who had a fish (not shellfish) allergy, and really didn’t take it seriously at all. It was a specific fish, and he didn’t heed the allergist’s advice to treat ALL fish as a no-no. He nearly died from eating soup from an Asian restaurant, because he didn’t realize the broth was made from boiling down many different kinds of fish and seafood. I’m talking he nearly died; he didn’t have his epi-pen, the ambulance got there quickly but not immediately, and they had to perform an emergency tracheotomy. A DOCTOR at Disney clearly communicated with staff and was assured that all her food was allergen-free, and died even after giving herself an epi and demanding an ambulance. The staff was not careful and clear enough. You have GOT to take this seriously. Life and death. [/quote]
