Vanity note: bangs are not allowed, they just happen |
So he was dumping spices from their jars into tupperware- I was on the phone and it seemed a harmlessly quiet occupation- until he got to the cinnamon. His face swelled up like a balloon, and the rash was a rough, raised, red mess. All because of the dust that he created by moving the cinnamon from one jar to the other! Now to be fair to Cinnamon, Brooks (kid #2) is an allergist's dream, and a mother's nightmare in that he is allergic to the dreaded NUT! So I wasn't super surprised by this new found allergy. His athsma spiked, but no anaphylactic epi-pen crazyness so it was ok. I didnt even give benadryl, just some good old albuterol. Poor kid though- no more cinnamon rolls for him.
(I have been resistant to this allergy business from the beginning; to me Allergies are like Weight Loss without Excercise: An impossibility. But as you can see from the title of this post; I have seen the light. So if weightloss could just show itself I'd be much inclined)
