About 1 year ago, my cousin was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. He was used to eating everything he wanted, whenever he wanted. But then suddenly, that was all taken away from him. To an 8 year old kid, that is a life changing disaster. He would sneak into his pantry at night just so he could have a snack he really wanted. My Aunt has had to struggle with her school system; trying to get them to understand the needs of her child. My Aunt has created a blog about her and her son's struggles with diabetes. I know this isn't exactly about food allergies, but I do know that diabetes is another struggle with food. Please look at her blog and spread the word if you know someone with diabetes!
