The mother of a woman who died from an allergic reaction after kissing her boyfriend is speaking out concerning allergy management.
Twenty-year-old Myriam Ducre Lemay was severely allergic to peanuts, but had never told her boyfriend. One night after a party in 2012, the couple went back to the boy’s house, where unbeknownst to Lemay, her boyfriend made himself a peanut butter sandwich. The couple then kissed goodbye, which proved to be fatal for Lemay.
