My peanut allergy kid had to take a Benadryl at a sleepover and I wanted her to come home. Better to be safe. This isn’t a joke. It’s not worth your life. This is what I told her. But she cried and begged and insisted she was fine and could stay. And I called the dr and talked to the parent. And I knew she was being watched closely and her symptoms had disappeared. We spoke several times and texted until she went to bed. But I checked my phone every couple of hours. All night. And when I heard from her this morning I finally breathed. This isn’t about doing the right thing because I think I should have made her come home. I’m sharing this because it’s difficult and scary to have a child with a food allergy—a tween who is very aware of her allergy, who knows the symptoms of a reaction, who knows how to use an epi pen, who very much wants to have fun with her friends, and a sweet smart kid who doesn’t want to have to leave a party. ❤️ #parenting #reallife #foodallergies #foodallergymom #community #citykidsGirl + dog + endless walks around the neighborhood.
