Chances are a child in your family or one of your childs friends has a food allergy. According to the food and Education Network one in 13 kids in the u. S. Suffering from one, but if your child or a child youre responsible for suddenly had an allergic reaction, would you know what to do . The debs family wants to make sure that never happens to you, what happened to them. Take a look at their story. Reporter just two weeks ago, the debs family of west waum beach, florida, were excited for their thanksgiving day vacation. It started off amazing. It was a wonderful, fun trip. We were visiting my sisterinlaw at her farm, and then on to maine for thanksgiving dinner, and a fun weekend. That was the plan. But the fun turned tragic when 11yearold oakley, one of the debs twins who suffered from asthma and a mild nut allergy ate a piece of poundcake covered in what he thought was chocolate. In was extract along with roasted walnuts on top of it, which looked like chocolate. We took our usual precaution. Gave him benadryl. Literally an hour to 2 1 2 hours later he came up said his stomach hurt. My uncle woke me at 4 00 in the morning. We need to go now. I said, where . He said, to the hospital. That night oakley vomited and his parents called 911. The ambulance arrived but oakley had gone into annafa lactic shock. His heart tragically stopped. It feels half of our life is gone. The best kid i parent could ask for and i keep struggling with the fact that, you know, his life was taken so soon. I just was like, crying, because i knew that he was gone, and and i that was just not it was the worst day ever. I realize in my heart of hearts, my son was put here for a reason. Oh always was his bill smile and athletic ability and his friends were all very important to him. And this is the way i can pay back the loss of my son, to teach other people not to be in my shoes. Reporter just days after their loss it was oakleys bright shoes that inspired the debs to start the red Sneaker Movement. We need to figure this out, and use my son as a way to help promote awareness. We dont know the difference between anaphylactic shock and allergic reaction, and thats unacceptable. Reporter their hope, save lives and educate others about nut allergies and the use of epipens. Oakley always wanted to do good and we think hes looking down and every time i start feeling sad, i think about how this red Sneaker Movement is going to change and help other families. That family is so strong. The debs family has already received a note from a family in the uk thanking the debs for sharing the story about oakley, which helped saved the life of one of their own 11yearold children. In honor of oakley, the Miami Dolphins will wear red shoes at this weekends game. Here talk about serious Food Allergies, our medical correspondent. You hear about nut allergies and know they can be tragic but you cannot drive this point home hard enough. Can you . Exactly. Cant drive it home hard enough. Sometimes people say, a child in a classroom, nut allergies, why worry about sending brownies with nuts if that child doesnt eat it . Or aplairplanes dont serve nut. Even nut dust, the dust of nuts or traces of it in food. The smell of it. Can cause people to have anaphylactic reactions. In this case, a lot of people wont realize, a delayed anaphylactic reaction that happens 15 hours later. Seem fine, things great, all of the sudden deteriorate. When they start deteriorating, that happens very, very quickly. The true tragedy. Wonderful parents who would have had an epipen if they knew the allergy he had was serious. Years before he had had a mild swelling in his mouth and stuff and given him benadryl. It was fine. Of course they would think den brill wou benadryl would help the next time. Im glad we and the family are talking about this. You need to use the epipen if they had a reaction before. Usually they get worse and worse and time goes on. A mild, net 1 moderate, the third could be severe. I didnt know that. Anything around the mouth or lips, tongue or throat, a very, very worrisome talk to your doctor about carrying an epipen. Can you show us . Sometimes parents are in charge of other kids. Sleepovers. Right. Green for the child. 33 to 66 pounds. A little bigger than the baby were demonstrating on here. The green one.

Where the needle is. Blue to the skies, orange to the thigh. Blue to the skies, orange to the thigh. Not in the arm. Its in the thigh. The big muscle of the thigh. Take off the blue cap, once you take off the blue cap, children, a warning, hold the childs leg still, because its a needle. Its going to hurt. Put it basically hold it like you normally would and then just hit the thigh with it. Supposed to look the child in the face and count talk to them and make sure they understand whats going on. How long are you holding that in . Used to be 10 seconds. Most labels say 10 seconds. 3 seconds they came out with a few months ago. Changed the time to 3 seconds. Its still a long time. Especially in pain and wiggly. Take it out, the needle retracts and goes away. And now what happened . Call 911. The confusion, call 911 before . Call 911 after . Epipen first. 911 after.

Now that christmas is upon us, how do we let our man know we would like a personal or sentimental gift as opposed to something else. We dont want an irish. Iron. How do you suddenly tell your man that . Just say just say, dont want an iron. Do not give me a gift that means you want me doing some work. Same for you . If you got tools and you love brand new, shiny tools . See, i dont love brand new, shiny tools. Does anybody here . Its only Lou Manfredini . Ah, yeah give me tolls every year. O tools every year. The good doctor. Bring movie stuff to cook or bring me actual food. Okay. I feel like this is one of the similar says we say in a lot of these. Just talk about it. Why cant you just people dont obviously bob and his wife dont talk. Sometimes you dont want to ask for something. You want him to come up with something. Say, honey, i want that bracelet. Whats the point . Thats not its not your idea a. Few things you like and be surprises when you the one he actually picked out. I think its something that develops over time. Year after year youre getting gifts you dont like and its, like, okay. Christmas is becoming a source of tension and fighting, because you keep giving me stuff i dont want. Socks. We got to have a talk. Other than that, some people are simple. Socks and underwear, im happy with socks and underwear. Lets go across the street. Jenny from portland, oregon.

Were not mind readers. A little from column a and a little from column b. Make sure the message is in there. Gets closer, just do a little test to see if then go to smib think maybe that they love and are close to and tell them what youd like and that person can subtly come up to you and go, you know what, larry . By the way she solved the whole thing. Instead of going directly, feels not great. Tell a friend. Tell a friend. A little birdie. Kathie lee, the questions its exhausting you guy, thank you so much.

I took warfarin for over 15 years until i learned more about oncedaily xarelto. A latest generation blood thinner. Then i made the switch. Xarelto® significantly lowers the risk of stroke in people with afib not caused by a heart valve problem. It has similar effectiveness to warfarin. Warfarin interferes with vitamin k and at least six blood clotting factors. Xarelto® is selective targeting one critical factor of your bodys natural clotting function. For people with afib currently well managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. Like all blood thinners, dont stop taking xarelto without talking to your doctor, as this may increase your risk of a blood clot or stroke. While taking you may bruise more easily, and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. Xarelto may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. Xarelto can cause serious, and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Get help right away for unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising or tingling. If you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. Do not take xarelto if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. Tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. Before starting xarelto tell your doctor about any conditions, such as kidney, liver or bleeding problems. To help protect yourself from a stroke, ask your doctor about xarelto. Theres more to know. Xarelto. And let roomba from irobot help with your everyday messes. Roomba navigates your entire home. Cleaning up pet hair and debris for up to 2 hours. Which means your floors are always clean.
