Tom Poti and I Have the Exact Same Allergies

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009

As a kid growing up, I was always having severe allergic reactions to peanuts and nuts and cats and shellfish. Tom Poti does as well. Read this article please.

I always carry an EpiPen with me as does my son.

This is a constant battle.

When I fly on a plane and they serve nuts and peanuts or when I go to a baseball game and the fan next to me is eating peanuts and crushing open the shells, I have to run away.

This is a real concern for folks like Tom Poti, my son and me.

Have empathy. This is a real issue.
