When Aiden was 4 months old, we found out that he had food allergies. Some of the foods are severe and some of the foods he has been cleared from and may eat again. Peanuts are a huge one right now. We carry an EPI-PEN with us when we travel or go to certain places. One morning this week, I was cleaning out the medicine cabinet and Aiden wanted to know what the EPI-PENS were. I explained to him what they were for and when he would have to use them. I explained this to both Riley and Aiden, figuring they should both know how to use them. We then practiced with the trainers what we would have to do if Aiden had an allergic reaction and started to not be able to breathe. Riley has been very helpful and has been very aware of what his brother can and cannot eat since he was little...we figured we should train him as well.
