    Traveling with a peanut allergy

    I am preparing to take my daughter on a trip in two weeks on an airplane. I called Delta and Northwest airlines. Northwest does not serve peanuts but their snacks might contain nuts. They will make an announcement at the gate if requested. I also have to get a doctor's note to travel with her benedryl and epi-pens. It is my fear that they will be taken in security. I will call the allergist's office and post what I learn. I just ordered two peanut allergy books from Amazon and will post about those too once I read them. Information is power and learning how to manage it all and read labels is the most important thing for newly diagnosed families. We had a birthday party for our oldest daughter who turned 5 last weekend. I ordered the Publix cupcake cake and made safe cupcakes for my youngest daughter. So that worked out okay as she broke out in hives from tasting a Publix cupcake a few weeks ago. Small steps!!! Happy Friday. http://www.kidswithfoodallergies.org/resourcespre.php?id=114&title=travel_with_food_allergies
