A Fantastic Food Allergy Resource from an inspiring mom--

Check out this story from the New York Times about Robyn O'Brien, who started AllergyKids.com, a site devoted to helping kids with food allergies. She has incredible resources on the site, including helpful forms and guides for daycare providers and schools, products with a clear graphic showing that your child has a food allergy, and information about how our corporate food system might be causing the increases in allergies in kids (and she discusses autism, ADHD and cancer as well). There is lots to read and take in on this site. I plan on bookmarking Allergy Kids and visiting often.

Here is the New York Times article.

Here is a link to her site, Allergy Kids.

And--check out my recent interview (it feels fancy to say that, thanks, Kris!) by Kris Underwood who blogs at Writing in the Mountains. She's posted it at Moms Speak Up and the MotherVerse blog.
