HK, we haven't neglected to mention that anaphalaxis could kill him, but we don't talk about that much, focusing instead on, it is extremely likely that if you have epi-pens, you will be fine. Sure he has picked up on things, but I don't see the stress with eating or fear associated with that. I could be wrong, but my parent instinct says, no.

I do worry about digging too deep, because I don't want him to focus too much on it. Right now, all the fear and crying comes at night, when his brain has turned off everything else. But I get just interest questions, without the fear throughout the day.

For him, just ceasing is the worst possible case. But we aren't atheist, so I'm not even going to bring that up. It might be poetic for some, but not us.
