One cousin had severe respiratory problems around perfume. One day we were shopping and two little old ladies walked by her smelling like they dumped the whole bottle on them. I had to drag my cousin out of the store into fresh air. It took her a few minutes to overcome it. Store employees would not have known what her problem was if she had been alone. This was over 45 years ago. Two of my youngest son's class mates when he was in elementary school had severe allergies to peanuts.
I'm saying all this because there are so many allergies out there. Some, like your daughter, the penicillin and peanut allergies can be deadly.

Mercy, I sympathize with the perfume allergies. Fellow customers who bathe in loud perfume irritate me. Btu what makes me the maddest, is when an employee in a busines does it. I took my sis inlaw to the doctor's once and I had to wait in the hall because the receptionist smell the high heaven. Someone came out to the hall and told me there were seats in the waiting room---------and I told them there was too much perfume, too. Don't know what happened after that.
