At school on the 10th of march had an encounter with a Lysol air spray and the teacher thought she was FAKING ind was red in the face,coughing,wheezing, etc... and the teacher sent her to the lunch detention room and was to miss lunch the next day. this was a common but frequent problem but what was stuck out to me today from my daughter was that the teacher thought she was faking and the other student who is to believed to have an allergy to the product was given a pardon to the problem and with another student involved see was just joking this was also given a pardon and she actually had severe asthma and was coughing to with many other issues and just told the teacher that see was faking and that she had a joke to spare !!! This was just one of the many encounters of life with an un-understanding teacher whom just might have a mental problem with a psychically challenged for not believing that you can not fake as asthma attack and thought she was the right person who has all the answers. So are they just going to let us stand around saying to us "hey it is life get over it and not to lie to me ever again or you'll miss lunch for a week"? N-O I'm not going to let them tell my daughter that!!!. (sorry for

Turns out a bagel she ate was next to the plum's and probably a plum was knicked and the juice got onto the bagel; my daughter was ok .. she was 13 at the time and mega Benadryl was ok .. she was lucky .. epi pen was in the office and so was the nurse.
In NJ they now have a new law that not only the nurse, but others in the schools MUST be educated in admin. of an epi pen! And many communities in NJ now carry Epi's on the ambulance if their EMT's have taken a class and the community qualifies. This is great news.
My daughter is also asthmatic ....................professionals must never take a life threatening reaction or any reaction into their own hands, not ever...............
