Children, they are so vulnerable

Most of you visiting this site probably don’t know that my oldest daughter (only daughter at the time of this writing, but we are expecting our 2nd child in October) has severe food allergies.  She is allergic to milk and eggs, and has an intolerance to wheat. The milk allergy is severe enough that it could kill her, if she was exposed to enough of it.  I thought that my wife and I had been through a lot with our daughter.  From birth to about 18 months of age she never slept all the way through the night. She would wake up screaming in pain. We felt like failures as parents.  After eliminating those foods from her diet, she slept through the night.

When I watched the video below my heart sank.  I know my wife and I went through a lot with our daughter, but compared to what this poor kid is going through, our experience was a lot easier.
