The Disney theme parks have teamed up with the makers of EpiPen epinephrine auto-injectors to offer new online resources for families whose children are living with allergies.

The MyAllergyKingdom website offers answers to frequently asked questions by parents of children with allergies, aimed at those who have been recently diagnosed. The site also includes allergen-free recipes and a page for families traveling to the Disney theme parks, which includes links to Disney World's and Disneyland's webpages for accommodating special dietary requests.
That page also notes that Mylan's EpiPen injectors are available at the First Aid stations in Disney theme parks, and that visitors can find them by looking for the EpiPen logo on any official Disney guidemap.
To promote the new website, Disney and Mylan are giving away a five-day, four-night Walt Disney World vacation that includes a special allergen-free dining experience at Cinderella's Royal Table, Be Our Guest, or California Grill. Readers can enter on Disney's website between now and Sept. 30.

Good site. From someone who has to deal with anaphylaxis on occasion, I believe the more awareness in the community for this life threatening occasion, the better.
