    SnowyJ replied to ohiobobcat's topic in School

    Yes, I could expect a reaction even from the smell of nuts or residue, but to be epi worthy when just nearby is severe! This is why I tell parents of allergic kids it can be risky to sit with the nut...

    SnowyJ replied to ohiobobcat's topic in School

    She didn't even ingest it and had that kind of reaction? That's scary! This concerns me, because we are NOT a nut free school, and many of my nut allergic children have MD permission to sit at regular...

    Not Enough Backup-CPS?
