Father’s Day Tribute with Thomas Silvera of the Elijah-Alavi Foundation

Send us a textIt was an honor to record this Father's Day and Men's Mental Health month episode with Thomas Silvera, co-founder of the Elijah‑Alavi Foundation. In this discussion, Thomas revisits the tragic passing of his 3-year-old son, Elijah, due to a fatal allergic reaction at daycare, and explore how that loss sparked a nationwide advocacy movement. He shares the Foundation's progress with Elijah's Law, and also speaks candidly about being a food allergy Dad, his own mental health journey, racial and socioeconomic inequity in food allergy and asthma, and what we can do about it.Elijah-Alavi Foundation | Non-profitThe Anaphylaxis Strike! a book by Arevlis Sa-Moht and Thomas Silvera - Bookshop.org USReach out to me via my website Connect — Amanda Whitehouse Phd or on Instagram @thefoodallergypsychologist to be entered in the giveaway of Thomas' new book, The Anaphylaxis Strike. Special thanks to Kyle Dine for permission to use his song The Doghouse for the podcast theme!www.kyledine.comFind Dr. Whitehouse:-thefoodallergypsychologist.com-Instagram: @thefoodallergypsychologist-Facebook: Dr. Amanda Whitehouse, Food Allergy Anxiety [email protected]
