I've been thinking lately of how blessed I am to be handling these family food allergies in my country of origin. I can read and fully understand the language, I recognize and know the foods and packages in the grocery stores, I can read the ingredient labels with a somewhat full understanding of what is listed (I'm even learning those sneaky words!).
I tip my hat to all of you out there who are handling your own food allergies in a language not native to your tongue, in a country where even the food containers look different, and the entire shopping experience is different. I commend your bravery and encourage you to keep persevering. Feel free to comment and share your story!
