The girl in the pink jacket almost made me cry! She had such a positive attitude towards her food allergy. I wish I was more positive about my allergies.
I'm allergic to milk, egg, peanut, nuts, fish, melon and beef. It is a very big struggle to live with all my allergic and it's very cool to listen people with allergic like me. I'm 12 years old.
Anytime I had a food that was risky for someone else in school I would becthe one to sit alone that way they could sit with their friends. It eventually just came a habit but it was worth it keeping those kids safe and washing my hands afterwards if the teacher would let me which sometimes don’t know if handsanatizer gets the food residue off but even if it didn’t it was worth a try when the my teachers wouldn’t let me go to the bathroom at least I was trying to be cautious and considerate sometimes I would even decide not to eat the food someone is allergic to and I would save it for an after school snack Those kids probably appreciated that I was more cautious than anyone else but I think it was more because I didn’t want them to watch me eating a food they can’t have in front of them and making them feeling left out . Like I felt when there’s a food I don’t like and my parents say it’s good but my taste buds says bleh it’s similar to food allergies,but Food allergies ate a million times worse and way more deadly.
