Help Ethan get an Angel Service Dog




A couple of weeks ago I was contacted by my good friends over at Angel Service Dogs regarding one of their future recipients of a dog, Ethan. Ethan has a severe nut allergy with hopes and dreams of any other child, including going to school, restaurants, camp, etc. but is limited due to the extent of his reactions. With the assistance of an Angel Service Dog, Ethan can too live a great life but because of their specialty and intensive training before, during and after receiving the Angel Service Dog, financial costs are high. The Angel Service Dog family does assist in fundraising efforts including one this weekend in New York where a very generous girl is helping to raise money for Ethan's dog and raise food allergy awareness during her Bat Mitzvah (where Sweet Alexis products will be distributed and sampled) but Ethan could still use your help. To read Ethan's story and see how to donate, please log onto www.ethansangel.org. If you too are interested in learning more about the Angel Service Dog organization go to www.angelservicedogs.com. Good luck Ethan!!!

Is your child suffering from eczema? According to some food allergic mommies, Baking Soda in the bath helps soothe their skin and takes away the itches. Most common over the counter soaps do contain mineral oil which can dry and irritate the skin. Another common ingredient in soaps is coconut oil which can cause a reaction in peanut and nut allergic children.
Next time the kiddos get the itches, we will try this out!
Of course, it's always best to consult your physician prior to any treatment.
