Excellent - did you see Dr. Lynda Schnieder? She handled Josh expertly,
contrary to her predecessors' treatment.

Yes. There's no telling when. Josh has had several hives reactions with
respiratory distress upon accidental ingestion of small quantities of
allergen. We carry the Epipen because we never know when/if he will go into
anaphylactic shock (even though he never has). In this case, it's much
better safe....
