Puppy had a 1/2 day at school during the field trip. So he went home with his best bud E. E’s mom called me and said that Puppy told her he couldn’t have milk – that he was allergic to it. I told her we don’t give him milk – but things with milk in it are fine.

30 minutes later I got a call saying Puppy is insisting that he can have chocolate milk. I was at work – I explained to her that he didn’t understand chocolate soy milk vs. regular soy milk – though he did understand milk vs. soy. But it has been so long that he has been having dairy…not to worry. Go ahead – let him have it.

Hours later Puppy’s face was swollen, hot, almost like it was on fire – his ears too. I took his temprature to make sure he didn’t have a fever. He didn’t – his body was cool.

Boy did I feel aweful. He has an appointment with the allergest, for the first time on November 9th.
