Diagnosed with Alpha-Gal.
Blogging the Meltdown.

Forced Vegan.
Funny by Survival.

Hello.

I’m Dominique — wife, mom, and accidental allergy blogger.  

A single tick bite flipped my life upside down, turned me vegan overnight,

and made me allergic to most of your BBQ menu.  

 

This blog is where I survive the chaos of Alpha-Gal —

one label, one meltdown, and one sarcastic post at a time.
