💔 A heartbreaking tragedy in Kingston, Ontario.

Eight-year-old Liam Gartland lost his life after suffering a severe allergic reaction when his mother alleges he was mistakenly given a dairy-containing treat instead of the vegan option she specifically ordered due to his life-threatening allergies.

According to his family, Liam had severe allergies to dairy, eggs, and peanuts. Within minutes of eating the treat, he began experiencing symptoms of anaphylaxis. Despite emergency responders' efforts, Liam later passed away.

This devastating incident is a powerful reminder of how serious food allergies can be. For families living with severe allergies, a simple mistake can have life-altering consequences.

Our thoughts and deepest condolences are with Liam's family, friends, and everyone affected by this unimaginable loss. ❤️

⚠️ Food Allergy Awareness:
✔️ Always double-check allergy-sensitive orders.
✔️ Never assume an item is safe without verification.
✔️ Listen when someone reports symptoms.
✔️ Keep emergency medications accessible.
No family should have to endure such a tragedy.
