These handmade cards are a heartwarming way to say thanks to friends & family who go above & beyond for your allergy kiddo. <3 Plus, all proceeds go to the #top10challenge, bringing us one step closer to that $25,000 allergy research grant via @thecaaif. etsy.com/ca/listing/685…

@TurnItTeal Hmmm we arrive on May 13th and looks like that's the last day of the lighting. Will try my best to check it out, but may be impossible... Boo hoo. 😢

@walkforandrea Thanks for the explanation. What an unfortunate thing to do to people who are already adjusting to life without a whole bunch of foods/products/brands. How unfair to further limit them for no reason!

@AllergyBitesTO A panel tests many foods ingested or not & are often ordered without connection to clinical history. These panel tests often lead to over diagnosis of food allergy because food challenges aren’t offered. If clinical history is carefully considered a broad panel is not needed.

Congratulations @AllergyBitesTO on this awesome initiative! Wouldn’t it be great if every allergist did this - especially the ones who panel test - so they can truly understand what it’s like for their patients to strictly avoid their allergen(s) each & every day.

For the #Top10Challenge, we plan to go without dairy & wheat to live 'a day on the plate of' someone with these particular food allergies. Want to help raise #allergyawareness & funds towards #allergyresearch? Join the challenge! bit.ly/top-10-register @thecaaif @AllergicLiving

@walkforandrea Thank you for sharing! I can't believe this is still an actual thing allergists do with all the research/info that supports *not* doing it. Gr.

great idea. could you do it for one major allergen? how about multiple allergens? and include avoiding trace or may contain warnings? #notachoice #anaphylaxis #adayontheplate #allergy #solidarity #top10challenge @AllergyBitesTO @foodallergyuk

"I think once people understand that food allergies are not only life-changing, but life-threatening and absolutely NOT a choice, the empathy drawer in their brains might start to open little by little." Full article: bit.ly/top10-taking-a… @TheVarsity @thecaaif #top10challenge
