dont get over whemled -as a parent you are going to have to make a great
deal of changes for your daughter-i have been living with a diagnoised
latex allergy for five years and have almosted died from this allergy
also.
it is important for you to educate your self you can go online and copy
the alternative list off the internet from alert.
you have to think of this as an inviromental allergy when reading this
list- the first thing that help me was the air purifier in the
bedroom-was told to sleep with clean air help to heal
then you need to understand that it not just the latex on you childs body
but also the latex in the air tht is on her skin and now in her lungs.
this is important for you to understand the reasons for making your home
latex fre and scent free tht means anything with a fragrance can cause a
reaction-if a product says fragrance in the ingredience your child is
mostly allergic to it.
then make -up if anyone holes or hug her with make-up on make-up
contains latex and this will make your child sick.
husband has to be told no more aftershave or scented dordorant no clear
deordants either and absolutely no fabric softener luck up faricsoftener
allegy on the internet
not elastic or rubber clothing -for right now she is yo9ung go to the
basic
clean your home with safe product from the chemical allergy support
groups and
i would suggest you have her patch tested for chemical allergies it is
called a true test this will give you a more accurate array of items tht
cause problem
mbt and colophony have been linked in othe countries with latex and are
being study her
if you need to talk to someone who can understand your position and your
child call i have three children so i am latex allergic and a mother.
good luck and i will remember you in my prayers marguerite
