Back to School – Make it Allergy Free

Their first year in college. Student and parent are excited and scared at the same time because this is such a big event in their lives.

I know, 3 years ago our daughter left home for the first time to attend school and what  an adventure it has been. She graduated from UCF in May and now its time for another new  adventure. For parents with children who suffer from allergies and/or asthma it can be  particularly trying time. For years we have worked hard to keep them away from  the things that make them sick or uncomfortable such as: dust, pollen, mold, dust mites, animal dander, etc. Now they are headed off to live in a place we have very little if any control over. The good news is there are some simple things you can do that will help reduce the allergens their new homes.

While our daughter had a few problems  with her allergies, she pretty much managed to stay healthy throughout the years. Your children are starting out on a new adventure, one that they will remember and
benefit from for the rest of their lives. If they suffer from allergies or asthma you can  do a few simple things now that will help them all year long.
