Kara was diagnosed with food protein induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES) in August of 2010. She has had many FPIES reactions and complications that have lead to numerous hospitalizations and specialist appointments. It was a huge sigh of relief to finally have some answers and a diagnosis, however we have to remind ourselves daily that this is a very serious disease and this is only the beginning of the long road we have in front of us.

Playing in the Corn

Last weekend we enjoyed a family day by going to a local corn maze, pumpkin patch and little petting zoo. The girls had a blast and we had fun some scaring them in the corn maze - just enough to get some good laughs out of them!
At the end, we let them play in the large "corn box" that they had set up full of, well, corn! Kara loves the sandbox so of course she was in heaven here. We kept talk talking about how appropriate it was, since corn was her first food trial! Little did we know the events that were going to follow in the next few days...

Of course, I forgot to bring my camera so we didn't get any pics except the ones I have on my phone, but I have to share this picture of my happy, finally food eating girl, playing in the corn...
