MANGO SAP...

So Ty has had a rash for over a week, I took him to the Dr.s on Wed and they told me he was allergic to Mango Sap. I said What? We have a big mango tree just up the hill in the big park by our house. Ty loves to go pick up the mangos that have fallen out of the tree, and loads them in his tractor. But no more doing that! Sorry buddy. I also leanred that the sap of the mango is in the same family as poison ivy, and poison oak. WHO KNEW!

Yikes, that looks like it hurts. Bummer about the mangos. Does that mean he can't eat them either?

Poor Ty! I'm sure he'll find something else fun to do and gather instead of Mangos! That is too bad. Still cute as a button though:)

Oh Ty you poor little guy. I am sorry that you had a yucky rash. But I am sure you will find something else to load in your tractor. Love and miss you!

I'm glad you know what it is for sure. I didn't know it was related to such friendly poisons!!

Poor guy. But I am glad you know what gave him the rash. I hope he is doing better.

Ouch, that looks bad. Who knew? Mango sap? How did they find that out?

Who knew is right! Poor Buddy.

Mango sap. How crazy that something so sweet could come from something poisonous. Poor little Ty. Hope he finds something else to fill up his wagon. :)
