My Thoughs on Eczema & Food Allergies: Part 3 How our life is now!!

Part 3:

After all the testing and after a few weeks I went through the house removing the last of the foods that we had left with allergens . Kason settled into his new routine with his medicine and his new sense of relief that foods he once was restricted to eat where added back. Now we are In a new world of foods  and recipes. I am cooking a lot more and not using the normal boxed dinner. I am active in my sons life and that is all I ever wanted . Most parents can go out to eat with not issues , but with my son there is few things I can actually feed my son from restaurants. I am active with other mothers what have children with food allergies and hopefully will make the FAAN  walk. I have his plan in actions if something does happen, if the worse should come. We also received another gift in a pediatric allergist about a month ago and I am in love!! I am blessed with the gift of a son who is now mostly eczema free and we don't have to worry about bloody sheets. We can walk around with no questions. We don't live in the ER anymore, we have freedom and fun like nothing at all has ever happened. He can go to places and play like he has no limits. We don't look at a small speech impairment or his allergies as a disability, but what makes my son unique to the world. We knew from the beginning that God was giving me a work of his hands and sometimes that's in the form of a sick child. Its hard to Love life when your child hurts, but you love them even more than it. You would sacrifice anything for them. If i could take it all away I would. His life is testament to why I think that every child no matter the health issue deserves a chance to shine just like he does!! His blue eyes and smile remind me that even with the biggest challenges it take a person strong enough to face them and achieve past what people say is impossible.. 3 years ago they said he would never walk, now he runs. They told me he would never talk , but his favorite thing to say is " I'M hungry!!" They told me that he would never have normal skin, but its as soft and beautiful as it was when he was born.
