So. I have been married for 13 years to an amazing woman who is deathly allergic to all shellfish.......she thought.
Her mother told her when she was very young she had a fatal allergy to seafood. Basically filling her next 30 odd years with fear of eating out or
buying fresh
fish from a display even close to and shrimp or lobster. |as a loving husband have avoided one of my favorite
food groups for 13 years due to this allergy.
As we are moving to
Halifax, and she has never shown any signs of a reaction (due we thought to our extreme diligence), I sugested she go to an allergist to get tested. She did, and she isn't!! Woo Hoo
So as a trial (after speaking to her doctor and getting an epi pen) we went out for dinner where she tried Clams, Lobster, Crab, Shrimp and Scallops. Kind of over kill, but she wanted to be sure.
This is very cool as it removes all sorts of fear, AND opens up so much great cuisine. Not to mention the self aquired
food once we get cruising.
Anyways, I am just excited so I wanted to share.
