Allergies and Siblings

So, we recently learned that Alex is allergic to peanuts. As a result, the pediatrician and I agreed - it made sense to also run the RAST testing on his sister and then follow up accordingly with an allergist.

So.. I got to be the lucky one to take the most dramatic child ever in for 'blood taking' as Alex calls it. Lets just say, she was not as well behaved with it as her brother was! I am sure the screams were heard throughout the township!!

And, sadly - the results for her didn't come back all that great either. She however, doesn't share the peanut allergy.


Instead... the verdict is:

Treenuts,
Dogs,
Cats

Off to the allergist she goes too!
