I need your help!! I am in the process of creating a series of ebooks for managing food allergies. The first one I am working on is written for those who will care for a child with life-threatening food allergies for 24 hours or less (i.e. babysitters, parents who host playdates or sleepovers, etc).
I would love to have your suggestions of what you think is important for these type of people to know. So far I have the following sections:
1. Life-Threatening Food Allergies 101 2. What to Do Before a Food Allergic Child Visits Your Home 3. The Food Allergy Action Plan to Prepare for an Emergency 4. Understanding the Epi-Pen 5. Feeding the Food Allergic Child
6. Cross-Contamination - What is It and Why is It Important? 7. Why You are Important in the Life of a Food Allergic Child
OK, food allergy moms and dads, is there something else you would like to see? Please leave me a comment to let me know your thoughts on this. Or, if you prefer, send me an email. I'm working on this right now so I'd love your input this week.
My hope for this book is it will be something you can forward via email (since it will be electronic) to anyone who you trust to care for your food allergic child but want to give them a little education to prep them for the event. It will be filled with pictures and other things that make it entertaining while also being educational.
ThThis is the first in a series of books like this I plan to offer. Although there will be a small fee associated with them, I plan to offer them at a special price to readers of this blog for the first week. (As a big THANK YOU for reading this blog and helping me grow as a food allergy parent.
