Hey everyone!
I’m Karen, and I have an allergy to peanuts, tree nuts and soy. I thought we could have a little fun with Halloween, by showing that we can still have fun with our allergies with costumes of the some of the most common allergens in Canada. There are also a few allergy jokes in there that I hope you find a little humorous. Enjoy!
EGG
MILK
As part of the admission procedure in the hospital where I work, I ask the patients if they are allergic to anything. If they are, I print it on an allergy band placed on the patients’ wrists. Once when I asked an elderly woman if she had any allergies, she said she couldn’t eat bananas. Imagine my surprise when several hours later a very irate son came out to the nurses’ station demanding, “Who’s responsible for labelling my mother ‘bananas’?
HAZELNUT (TREE NUTS)
PEANUT
BEES (INSECT BITES)
Humans and bees have something in common – hives!
FISH
A picture of a cat wearing a dress was seen hanging in an allergy clinic with the following caption: We got rid of the kids, the cat was allergic.
SHELLFISH
WHEAT (her dress is made out of it!)
Q) Did you hear about the Frenchman who could only count to seven?
A) He had a huit allergy.
