When a mother discovers her son has a condition which could kill him at any moment, in a matter of moments, she could fall apart. No-one would have blamed her if she had tried to wrap him in cotton wool and spent the rest of her life fretting. Instead, when Delyth Wakefield discovered her son Jared had a potentially-fatal peanut allergy, she set about discovering everything she could about the condition. This remarkably informative book is the result of her research and is set to become a must-have book for anyone who finds themself having to cope with a peanut allergy. In it she explains the background to peanut allergy, how to spot it and how to live with it. There is advice for parents on teaching their children to use the adrenaline pens which can save their lives, and advice on how to persuade their schools to help. Here, too, are warnings on seemingly-innocent foods and everyday products in which traces of peanuts may lurk, alongside helpful tips on avoiding danger situations. She has included a number of straightforward recipes to get parents started and there is even a handy phrase book so parents holidaying abroad can explain the situation to restaurant staff. Delyth Wakefield nearly lost her son to the anaphylactic shock triggered by a peanut allergy. This book is one mother's guide to how to live a relatively normal life in the face of an extrordinary condition.
