I knew it....

Last Wednesday Soph had her allergy tests done. Bless her heart - she is allergic to everything outside along with chicken, tomatoes, cauliflower, and pears! Although the food allergies are very slight they said. I knew that result was coming! The child has been on Zyrtec since she was 5 months old. When she was a baby her eyes were constantly red and watery. During the summer her legs are most always covered in hives from the grass.

She was a real champ during her tests! The nurse even said that she wished some boys were as brave as she was! I was so proud of her especially considering that her back looked like she had been attacked by mosquitoes (she had welts from her reactions). It was pitiful!

The doctor is putting her on a special medication that will build up her immune system. Hopefully this will help her better!
