Episode 2 of this 4-part series!!!

When it comes to parenting a kiddo with food allergy, remembering that epi is only one of the many challenges faced. Other very real challenges were recently divided into three themes:

  • Anxiety 
  • The need for resources
  • Living with food allergy is a journey

Rejoin my co-host Pam and me in this second episode of the series on Food Allergy and Parenting. We continue our discussion of the article "Parents of Children with Food Allergy," which was published in the Annals of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology in 2020.

"When I was reading this article, my head just kept nodding, 'yes!'"
