Madison’s introduction to food allergies is a story we hear often. As a toddler, she stuck her finger in a peanut butter jar and reacted immediately. Her family rushed her to the hospital where they administered an epipen. From that day forward, as a family they all avoided peanuts. Madison’s teachers were informed and the hope was that everyone was vigilant and careful. Recently Madison’s mom decided enough is enough and that she couldn’t take a gamble on her daughters safety by relying on others to do their part. Today is their second visit in our office. They are excited about OIT and the quality of life and peace of mind it will allow all of them to have. Three generations of beautiful women, all smiles!
