The School Access to Emergency Epinephrine Act

On November 14, US Senators Dick Durbin (D-IL) and Mark Kirk (R-IL) announced a new bill that they plan to introduce in the Senate this week: The School Access to Emergency Epinephrine Act.
Inspired by an Illinois law that was passed earlier this year, the bill will encourage all states to improve school access to life-saving epinephrine auto-injectors.

Please take a moment to contact your state representatives and ask them to support this bill.

We Survived Halloween with Gummy Bears

We dressed up as Japanese samurais.
We did not go out, but we welcomed kids to our home.
We did not touch the candy, but we handed it out to others who could enjoy it.
We were not the Halloween Grinches after all (although mom was very inclined to be one, just so she could keep us out of trouble).
We stayed safe and had fun.
At the end of the evening, we had our own treat:  a couple of these yummy Gummy Bears. And these. And these.
And we were just fine.
