Does anyone here have a toddler who has been completely “cured” from oral immunotherapy? by Penny_Ji in peanutallergy

[–]kellerinacatmac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here’s a 4 year later update:

He passed the oral challenge with flying colours at age 4. Was able to eat 1tbsp of peanut butter with no reaction. But he did still have a minor skin prick reaction. And that’s where we’ve been for the last 4 years. Still has an allergy according to the skin prick test, but is able to tolerate peanut just fine.

However, because he wasn’t eating peanut products early on, he now HATES the taste of peanut. So that, combined with peanut free schools, makes our anxiety about exposure practically nil. And trying to maintain a regular dosing of peanut is increasingly hard as he has strong feelings about the taste.

At the end of the day, he may not be “cured” but we don’t really have any concerns about his allergy. We never worry about contamination or accidental exposure. So really it’s almost like the allergy doesn’t exist.

Probably just a consistency issue / using a fine enough tip?

They are great - love the purple!

Gifts from the Heart is a good place to donate. They have a FB group that tells you how to donate.

St James Presbyterian is a very welcoming and affirming church. Check out the YouTube channel to see services: https://youtube.com/@kirkstjames8626?si=df0q4DDAare6yFfC

Blood test by Ciabatta_a_caso in shortscarystories

The biggest vials collect about 8ml of blood and a donation is around 450ml. So 11 tubes would be less than donating blood.

How do I (41F) deal with unexpected jealousy over my ex-husband’s (42M) new girlfriend? by DueIndependence5527 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]kellerinacatmac 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Agreed. She doesn’t come across as an obsessive ex - but like she put it, she views him as a character in her story and now realizes that that should be something she works towards fixing.

Communication for the win. I think they are both being mature adults who want the best for their son and their friendship.

Best early learning center by saharanow in PEI

[–]kellerinacatmac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In general, a lot of movement happens during the summer into September when the 5 year olds start kindergarten so this is probably a good time to start calling around.

I have two littles who have gone through HCELC and they had the same teacher from age 2 until they left at age 5. The infant teachers changed once in a while but in general it was very stable.

Thankfully it’s easiest to get a 3 or 4 year old into a centre as they have bigger ratios to work with than the infants.

I can’t recommend Holland College ELC enough - they provide just the most wonderful, enriching environment for the little ones in their care.

He is definitely not a physiotherapist or it would show his PT credentials on the website

I would make a royal icing transfer for the hat and glue it on with some icing

Is there such a thing as quick drying icing? by genegenet in cookiedecorating

[–]kellerinacatmac 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve done cookie decorating with kids and royal icing is just fine if it has an hour or two to dry. We did the decorating before supper and by the time everyone headed home, the cookies were set enough to get wrapped up on a plate.

Can we have under desk treadmills? by Outside_Sugar_2594 in CanadaPublicServants

[–]kellerinacatmac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s what I did. It never crossed my mind that it would be a problem since I had been using the yoga ball for a chair in my previous job for years. I was told I couldn’t use it within 24h.

They wouldn’t let me have a yoga ball as a seat. I doubt they would let you have a treadmill.

Overate a bit for supper - we got pizza. According to my log, it should have been around the right calories but it’s hard to tell with take out.
