I love him very much and I was hoping that I didn't have to give these things up totally but I was willing to if needed to keep him from having a severe asthmatic attack. This answers many of my questions.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15857647168205546241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32458049.post-29734551078161202942009-04-08T22:46:00.000-04:002009-04-08T22:46:00.000-04:00Ha ha!

Note that in his defence, I kissed him and he pulled back saying, "Maybe this isn't the best idea given what i ate." <BR/><BR/>To my complete surprise 20 minutes later I was semi-conscious on the floor with hives the size of loonies (Canadian $1 coins). <BR/><BR/>It all turned out OK, after an ambulance ride and some adrenaline.

Because FA people simply can't be with people who are insensitive about allergies. And if someone is sensitive about medical needs, then they are probably a pretty decent person. <BR/><BR/>I have one question which I hope is not too personal--do some potential suitors ever say "sorry I don't want to deal?"Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09257784551296505299noreply@blogger.com
