Two events this weekend:
1.Wedding.
Had to force bride-to-be to reveal menu so I know how much of a packed dinner I need to make for MIB. It’s also useful to prepare him for everyone sitting down tucking into tasty hot food while he’s sitting there with a marmite sarnie wrapped in foil.
Am hopeful that he’ll be able to eat something as it helps with him try lots of stuff, to prevent fussy eating. But also, because it is nice to join in with everyone else. However, am slightly nervous. A couple of nights waking up this week and scratching his legs has put his skin on ‘amber’ for today. A late night tomorrow means that he’ll scratch due to tiredness almost as much as if he’s eaten something.
My half-brother who has carried an Epipen for a few years now for brazil nuts is also goingaso at least I don’t feel like we’re the only awkward ones on the life-threatening menu front. One of my biggest concerns is other ‘well-meaning’ guests trying to feed MIB something when we’re not around.
I’m praying it doesn’t rain and looking forward to the day…no, really, I am.
2. The Allergy Show at Olympia
This at least should be a safe place to grab a snack! Will still pack a lunch for us all as am sure the show prices and queues at the cafe might be a bit off-putting, but am looking forward to feeling normal and like we belong there.
I think by Sunday night we’ll all be ready for a good sleep and a rest. Hope you all have a great weekend too and if you’re at the show, let me know!
