Okay, so when I got sick about three weeks ago, I thought it would last one or two days. Wrong! It set in, hung on, and included a major allergy/asthma-related cough. I still cough just thinking about it!

I feel like, you know...this isn't just me getting older. This has gotta be something environmental, as well. I'm thinking of looking into cleaner air, both at home and just in the world, in general. Seeing what others are doing, what research they're finding. I've always been pretty healthy, despite my thyroid situation--again, that could have been caused by chemicals, it's not uncommon. Why all of the sudden this asthma thing?

Anyway, this is my long-winded way of saying that podcasts and blog entries have been thin. I have a lot of (paying) work to do, and when that happens, unfortunately I have to relegate Allergy News to the background. I'd love for my book for food allergy parents to sell--then I could devote more time to these topics, and spend more time talking to y'all!

To that end, I will need to do some more allergy parent interviews, and I'm always looking for volunteers who'd like to talk about overcoming the shock and grief of food allergies. I have really enjoyed the two I've done so far, and I have a third coming up, soon. Let me know if you'd like to be included in my book! :) I'd love to have you!!!

I update AllergyWare.com way more often than I do my myspace, so if you want to keep in touch w/ the allergy news I post, please visit me there!
