National Eosinophil Awareness Week 2015

So I am assuming that every one of you who have read this blog, know that Cooper has Eosinophilic Esophagitis.

This week is Eosinophil Awareness Week, so I am going to post a few links to some things that can help explain and put the word out about what Cooper deals with.

If you are interested, please take a few minutes to learn a little more about it, as it is fairly newer and there isn't a lot of knowledge about it.

Fact Sheet
learn what Eosinophils are, and the 8 different diseases they effect.
Cooper's is EoE

Can you say Eosinophilic?
learn how to pronounce it, and a few tiny facts about what it is.

Awareness video
this is a short 4 minute video that has tons of info presented!

DumDums Are a Food Group
Seriously.
They are.
This is a cute little flyer that explains how debilitating these diseases are.
We are lucky enough to have 5 safe foods for Cooper right now, so he is better off than some who literally can only have Dumdums and formula

Donate
If you are feeling generous, please donate to the cause to help fund research and possibly an eventual cure.

If you would like to show your support you can wear a magenta shirt and spread the word about Eosinophils.
