Best in the West.......2007-06-13
Ms Springer's experience-rich treatise on gorgeous gardens in areas of little summer rain. Pictured are her "Hell Strips," those spots between the sidewalk and street the owner must maintain, which would translate well to any semi-dry area. She touts "Buchoe," buffalo grass that needs little water, greens earlier in spring and lasts later in Autumn, and requires next-to-no mowing. Gardening for those us with lives, an eye for beauty, love of productive gardening. From someone who practices what she preaches.

Book Description
"How To Manage Your Child's Life-Threatening Food Allergies: Practical Tips For Everyday Life" provides the step-by-step information you need to create a safe and enjoyable home, school and social life for your food-allergic child. The book includes hundreds of easy-to-read tips and numerous real-life examples, checklists and sample forms.
You'll learn the nitty-gritty details of how to handle common situations, and be warned of potential dangers you may not have considered. The book answers all of your questions, including: How do you determine which foods are "safe" for your child and which are not? How do you teach others about your child's allergies? How do you turn your home into a "safe haven"? What do you need to know to create a safe school and day care environment? How do you handle children's birthday parties, family get-togethers, guests in your home, etc.? How do you safely travel? Or go to a restaurant? What potential hazards are lurking at the playground, the movie theater or your child's best friend's living room? What about sports, camp, Scouts and other extracurricular activities?
For those who live outside the U.S. - or are planning to travel outside the U.S. - the book also includes information particular to food allergy management in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. Easily identifiable "International Perspective" tables with country-specific information are found throughout the book.

Excellent - even for moms experienced with food allergies.......2007-09-19
I've been living with a severely food allergic child (milk, eggs, nuts, soy) for eight years, and have subscribed to the FAN newsletter all that time, so I am hardly a newbie when it comes to food allergies. And I just LOVE this book. I was pleasantly surprised by the wealth of completely practical information it contained. She has excellent ideas for traveling with a food allergic child. Her recommendations about making your home a safe zone and letting your child play at other homes are spot on. Her comments about school and outings are great. She doesn't miss a thing. And I gained lots of ideas, like having a separate section of the freezer for "Becca-safe" foods, that are making my life easier.
I love her tone, too. She is clear and easy to understand. She is so realistic, and so calm, "Don't expect too much from other people" is so true, because even well-intentioned people just make mistakes. Unfortunately, you always have to be on guard.
One option she did NOT mention regarding school lunches is for your child to sit at a tray table placed at the end of the cafeteria table. This is what my child is doing, plus they do not let children drinking milk or eating yougurt or "spillable" dairy products sit near her. So far, this has worked well for our daughter.
My daughter is now eight, and she is starting to seem depressed about her food allergies, and I would have loved more information about how to help her deal with the emotional aspects of food allergies. And perhaps more information about what to expect when she reaches puberty, the age when some kids start to be rebellious and to take risks. Although, the author was writing from personal experience and her son outgrew his dairy allergy at age 11.5 (so there is hope yet, dear Becca), so perhaps that is why the book ends where it does.
Anyway, this is the number one book I will recommend to parents of children who are newly diagnosed with food allergies - and even those who have been dealing with it for a while but want some new ideas or advice about specific problems.
Best Advice for Mothers of Food Allergic children.......2007-08-08
Of all the allergy books I have read, yours is the only one that advised us as a Mom! So many tips and information that are so very important, but not so obvious. I am delighted to tell you we have had a safe, accidental exposure-free experience thus far with my son's life threatening allergies, and I feel this book is the main reason. My allergist is great, but he doesn't give all the day to day hints and information you have provided. Thank you for your book!
Scary but informative.......2007-05-10
The book does provide some good information and some other things to consider as you deal with your child's allergies. However, I do find that it tends to a bit extremist in some cases.
Great resource.......2007-03-11
Very helpful tips for someone that has just had a child diagnosed with allergies.
Not just for the parents.......2007-01-20
This book should be purchased by every parent who lives with a severely food allergic child, that is a given. What Linda Coss's title doesn't tell us, is that her book is a must read for any friend, teacher, family member, or caregiver who may also be in contact with their child.
This may seem like a tall order, but this book is actually quite interesting to read. The chapters are to the point. Linda Coss addresses every detail from how to use an EpiPen to grocery shopping and "play dates." Plus, to really send the message home, she includes stories and testimonials from dozens of parents throughout. These are fascinating eye-openers. Parents share their troubles and triumphs in dealing with their child's allergies and with the public. Any disbelievers will quickly be quieted when they realize the lengths that these parents must go to. The stories also provide some common ground and real world examples for parents of food allergic children.
It is essential for anyone who spends time with a food allergic child to understand how to create a safe environment and how to handle an emergency. Linda Coss's book frankly and thoroughly addresses the subject, and is certainly the best introduction to child food allergies that I have ever come across.

Contagious in our PICU.......2001-01-26
I am a 1-year experienced RN who is not only new to pediatrics, but also new to critial care, coming from adult med/surg. A friend of mine in the PICU lent me her Hazinski manual (the smaller edition) my first week in the PICU, calling it the "Bible". I have to say that I have dog-eared her book, referring to it practically every day when I get home. She has finally asked for it back, and so I now must get my own copy! It has been a Godsend to me. We have several copies of the larger edition on our unit, which is very comprehensive, so I have decided to purchase that one instead. Additionally, many other nurses on our unit owns one (it's contagious!). Just about everything you could want to know is in the book, and it doesn't speak to you as though you already know peds. critical care; it is truly an educational book in the best sense of the word. The inner covers have quick charts to refer to vital information, heart rates, respiratory rates, BSA Nomogram, fluid maintenance, resuscition equipment, etc. Our Education Department refers to them in orientation classes. The only thing I would love to see is a chapter on the very absolute basics, such as I&O's (which is included, but as part of chapters on dehydration, renal, cardiovascular, etc.), assessment of the critically ill child, skills, the key things to look for and report to the physician, etc. Just one small chapter like this for the very beginner. It would have been very helpful to someone like me in my first few weeks, and I believe a solid foundation is the best ground upon which to learn. I hope anyone buying this book enjoys it as much as my colleagues and I do.
