The doctor said that out bodies reset after seven years, so, in seven years we can re-introduce these things and if he reacts, don't try again for another seven, if he doesn't, we can consider him grown out of the allergy.

Going Vegan
Well, not entirely. After a long journey to find out what foods bother Amariah, the results are in. Ever since we put Amariah on solid foods we have been battleing rashes of different kinds, intense itchingness, swelling (mainly of the hands and face), and the countless nights of of great discomfort where he doesn't sleep all night long. After some experimenting on our own with eliminating different foods, and a blood test, we have now discovered what Amariah is allergic to; Dairy, eggs, and strawberries. Now that I am programmed to read all ingredients on everything, I am amazed how little I can buy for my son to eat. It seems that most things has either Dairy, eggs or both in them. After talking with the doctor about how to go about his allergy, it has come to that I will have to use vegan recipes and make almost everything for him myself. So, I have been looking at some vegan recipes on line and I think that this is going to be fun. We are still going to eat meat, but all baking and stuff like that is going to be vegan, no butter, no milk, and most margerines he cant have either. Fun fun fun. but I must say, we have already noticed a huge difference in him. all rashes have cleared up, no swelling in sight, and the nights have been so much better.
