Anna I'm starting to think you have the most interesting life of anyone that I (don't really) know.

What can I say?  I get bored easily and need interesting things to do.  I follow the "you can be anything you want to be when you grow up" mentality.  Luckily, no one ever told me you have to pick just one thing.

Well now we are begining to understand our immune system and realize that our body was not exposed to these allergens at at the time our immune system was developing so they are not recognizing them as normal occurances but as forgien (sic) enemies. The knew (sic) ideaology (sic) its (sic) to expose your self (as a pregnant woman) and your young child to life so the body can recognize these allergens as apart of our normal habitat- the non threatening part.Anecdotally, how do you explain my daughter's allergy to cats? I realize she is only a study of 1, but I had a cat when I was pregnant with her, had a cat until she was about 2, got another cat when she was about 3, and have had at least one cat since then, and my daughter is 11 now. Every. single. time. she touches a cat, she gets a rash and puffy eyes. Okay, bad mom that I haven't gotten rid of the cats. But she HAS been exposed to the allergens since in the womb, and she is still allergic to them.

Two questions !) You can get antibiotics at the grocery store?! 2) You can get antibiotics at the grocery store and you're surprised this happens?!!

There are pharmacies in the grocery store.  They are a seperate entity. mostly.
