Oakley loved his red sneakers and the family decided to use them as a powerful symbol for increased education and awareness among communities of people with food allergies.
Even if there are mild allergic reaction symptoms, experts recommend the drug epinephrine be used immediately.
“The child of mine, he was a rock star, he was a good, good kid,” said Merrill. “And always in my heart of hearts, I knew that he would make a difference in his life – I just didn’t know it would be after he passed away. So that’s a big part of my driving force – the legacy of Oakley.”
Please share this story to raise awareness of the dangers of food allergies and how we can help to prevent such a tragedy from happening again.
