O's Allergy test
Well, O is a peanut, egg, dog and tree. We took him to get tested today to find out if he was allergic to anything. We have been putting it off probably mostly in fear, Thank you Brandi for giving us motivation. He had the scratch test and blood test. We'll need to wait to get the results of the blood test but for now it was very apparent that he is allergic to peanuts and eggs. We are going to start a new lifestyle here in the Earle house minus peanuts and eggs and plus one epi-pen. We'll keep you updated as we learn more. Here are some photos from our adventure today.

So did he have symtoms before, and what were they? Poor guy!
Poor little guy! I hope you guys get it all figured out soon!....Jackson was allergic to eggs when he was one, but grew out of it.
Good Luck! I have a friend from college whose son is literally allergic to everything-anything from peanuts, cashews, almonds etc. to dairy to meat to eggs....Seriously what is left for him to eat? She has a blog and I think she may have started putting some links on her site for allergies-she's a chiropractor in Tacoma. On my blog I have it as the Eyford family.
Owen is such a trooper. Good luck with everything. Its a little comforting to know you have someone like Brandie who is already traveling down that road plus your brother. Doesn't make it any better, just nice to have people to reach out to.
