We want to take a moment to share our appreciation for the Law Family and their generous donations to the Willow Challenge Clinic and our patient community. Not only are they advocates for food allergy treatment, but their son, Ethan, was also a patient of Food Allergy Institute. Ethan tragically lost his life in 2020 due to a watercraft accident, and to keep his legacy alive, the Law family continues to support Food Allergy Institute and its community.
The Law Family’s Legacy
Ethan started his journey to food freedom in March 2019 at age 9 with a dream of visiting Japan and eating his favorite food, sushi, without restriction. After passing his egg challenge at age 11, Ethan enjoyed a birthday cupcake for the first time in his life. Though he has passed on (due to a watercraft accident), we celebrate his life and courage.
To honor Ethan’s memory and his tenacity in fighting food allergies, the Law Family made a generous gift that supported the construction and design of Pod B at Food Allergy Institute’s Willow Food Challenge and Patient Experience Hub. Pod B has been outfitted in blue to reflect Ethan’s courage, strength, and dedication. You can find a plaque on Pod B’s walls to commemorate Ethan and his family.
The Law family also gifted each new Food Allergy Institute patient with their own anaphylaxis kit! These anaphylaxis kits are used as a case to store medication, provide easy access to your medication, and make it convenient for patients to carry them anywhere.
Thank you, Law Family, for including us as a part of Ethan’s Legacy and for your kind donations!
