Allergies run in our family.  All my children (and siblings) are prone to it, whether they have CAH or not.  Allergies keep on getting worse and worse with time passing because of all the pollution and unhealthy environment.  While everyone turned around when my mother was pushing a stroller with a child with eczema 15 years ago, I now feel in style that my children ’also’ have allergies.  That’s what the discussion is when I am talking with my friends on the phone and when I am standing with other mothers for the children’s buses.  We discuss what creams and body lotions are good and which detergent to use or not to.  When I walk into my son’s class in play group the walls are decorated with long lists of every child’s allergies and intolerances.  

Today you don’t need to scratch your head for a good reason that causes it.  It’s enough that you live in a world where technology (and pollution) is so advanced.

Hope you make the best out of it, and if you are in lack of advice (in case your neighbors don’t offer enough) I have plenty to share.  I should work on putting together a book from all the experience I have in this field...
