Hmmm... The only thing that seemed odd was the fact that the
treatment for low blood sugar is .. well, sugar. That's what they
fed her when she was out, and everything I've read said that candies
or fruits should be used for it. So her insistence that brown or
white-sugar infused slop or sugar water wouldn't work is odd.
But it's good to hear they're treating it seriously.

So that was the "finger" thing that Allie said was so cute? I really
didn't know what to look for.

The slop was just a (educated) guess. Allie said that allergies
typically happen 30 minutes later, and that it fit the timing on the
slop plus it was a foreign factor for her.
But I don't think it's a complete lock, maybe there was something
outside that got her?
It was cool to see that the incidents weren't exactly the same time
(but it was freakishly close).
