4:45 pm Ms. Nhu from ABEST called telling me that William at the day care was scratching all over his body; Celestie was the Behavoral Technician with William at the time.
I called Mr Gary but he did not answer. Few minutes later he returned my call and his first words were “Your son is fine”. Then he told me that William threw up, and his eyes starting to get swollen and he was scratching all over his body. He gave him some Benadryl which I think helped a lot because by the time Tim picked him up, he was scratching less, his eyes still swollen though. He said he asked Celestie if she gave William some peanut butter chocolate but she said no. They just had a photo session with Santa Clause at the day care, and Santa gave out peanut butter chocolate and candies to the kids. Mr. Gary believed that William must eat some of it; otherwise he’d not be allergic like this.
Then when Tim picked him up; Ms. Celestie asked to talk to me on the phone. She said sorry that she did not know that William is allergic to peanut butter so when William asked for it, she gave it to him. William took 1 bite then threw the chocolate away. Soon after that he threw up (I’m not sure who changed his clothes but he got home with school clothes on him) and 10 minutes later he started to feel itchy. She said Sorry so many times. I’m just so glad that William is fine after this incident. According to Mr. Gary, he did not have trouble breathing at all so that’s a big relief.
When I got home from work and found that William was happy as usual, jumping up and down; his eyes were still swollen and he scratched his body here and there but other than that, nothing is serious. And most importantly I don’t see he has breathing problem at all.
And this happened just a few days before Christmas!
