Hi all, just wanted to introduce myself. I'm a new member here and a stay at home mom to two boys, one of whom has life threatening allergies to pnuts, tree nuts, egg, sesame, soy and a host of environmental allergies.

I've been through the ringer in dealing with food allergies and getting my son through and safe in kindergarten this year. I finally feel like we are in a good place.

Because of what we've been through I volunteer as a local team leader for an AAFA support group. It's my way of helping others and paying it forward. I've also recently started the site "Best Allergy Sites" which is a directory of allergy web sites and blogs.

I look forward to hanging out here, learning, and hopefully helping others.

Ruth Smith
