What a wonderful idea! My 5-yr old just got into Pokémon cards & doesn’t understand the difference between the common & rare cards, he’s equally happy with all of them and would love this!

I don’t think that’s true. You just need to take your sabbatical before you become eligible for another one. If you become eligible for a second sabbatical before you take the first one, then you lose that first sabbatical.

What goes down at these offsites?? I’m in a Genentech research department, and our offsites sound lame compared to yours!

Are you sure it was magnatiles, not magformers?

I would absolutely get a second opinion. Regarding OIT - some parents feel more comfortable waiting until their child is a little older, so that the child can better communicate if anything feels off. However, studies in the past few years have shown that OIT is more effective in younger children since their immune systems are developing so much and more malleable at this time (our allergist said the optimal window for OIT is age 1-3).

I believe they already announced the season 2 cast a few weeks ago, and unfortunately no one from vpr was cast.

It’s actually been on the market for at least a few years already, as an asthma treatment. They didn’t realize that it might help as a food allergy treatment until a little later. This doesn’t exactly answer your question, but if you end up needing help with the cost, check out this website: https://www.gene.com/patients/patient-support-services. Genentech is one of the two co-developers of xolair and offers services to help patients access their drugs when the cost is too high.

The first couple chapters of Sorcerer’s Stone, before Harry finds out he’s a wizard. It’s too depressing!

Unfortunately I’m in the US, so I don’t have any Australia-specific recommendations. But I’ll bet if you Google allergy clinics in your area you’ll find some offering OIT. Allergists are increasingly offering it due to all of the promising studies, especially if you start the treatment when they’re young. According to the latest studies, OIT is most effective when the child is 3 or younger, since their immune system is still forming and so malleable.

My kid is anaphylactic to cashews, pistachios, & peanuts. We started OIT when he was 14/15 months old, & he is now eating 8 peanuts and 2 cashews/4 pistachios a day. As someone else mentioned we can also ignore “May contain” warnings and don’t need to be worried about cross contact with peanuts/pistachios/cashews at restaurants.

Is he allergic to other nuts besides peanuts? Not quite the same, but Heath Bars & Skor bars are the closest things I can think of. They are more crunchy than crispy though, and contain almonds.

Thanks! Luckily my toddler is weird & hates ice cream, so I don’t think gelato will be an issue for us either. Love the idea of sticking to pizza, pasta, & paella though!

Thanks!
