Dear Fabiola,
I agree with your ways of improving speaking ability. I think learning from our mistakes is the best teacher.

On June 26, I met a High School teacher in a dinner at my friends’ house on Mechanicsville. We talked about a lot of things, but the most interesting topic was about allergy. I’ve been impressed how nowadays we hear much more about different kinds of allergy than in the past years. She told me that she has a 4 years old daughter. The girl has a serious high level allergy (level 5) from any kind of nuts. I did not know about allergy levels. She explained what means level 5 and which cares she has to have with her daughter. The girl can not have any kind of contact with nuts even with people that have eaten nuts few hours before. If it happens the consequences are really serious, she can even die. The girl is going to study at home until 13 years old. Just at this age she will go to school because she will be considered able to manage her medication. The family has been really hoped in an allergy level decrease. It’s possible as much the girl grows up, and her immunologic system gets strong. We still talked about allergy causes what is a controversial issue among doctors. There are many researches about this, but my friend has followed a discussion group in one of them. This one is trying to make connection between maternal food at pregnancy time and allergic children. They believe that exclusive organic food can change the children’s immunologic system and become them more likely for high level allergies. It is so hard believe that one thing so good can cause such alterations, but I will read more about and wait for news in all aspects.
