In a message dated 97-06-15 12:19:46 EDT, you write: << What method have you used to teach him what to do? >> He has had several reactions in his life which made it easier to identify that he was having a reaction. He has used the Epi-trainer (FAN sells these empty shots so you can practice with them http://foodallergy.org/ ) and he said he felt his throat was like a balloon filling up with air and he knew he had to do something quick. I don't think he realizes he probably saved his life. There is such excellent brochures, videos and even a schools program that FAN sells that are all excellent training material. Its no doubt in my mind that what FAN has offered has protected the lives of our kids.
