- “Our Melody”
Kyle Dine’s music really turned things around for our 4, almost 5 year old daughter. Melody has multiple food and other allergies. She seemed to be doing well with her allergies until a few months ago when we noticed she was struggling. We heard about Kyle Dine via the Washington FEAST group and decided to attend his concert in our area. We purchased Kyle’s cd’s beforehand so we could learn the songs and play them at home, in the car etc. That’s when things started to turn around for Melody. She LOVED the songs and would dance and sing along with enthusiasm. She learned the lyrics and the positive message. BAM! Our Melody was back! Our happy, strong-willed child seemed to relate to Kyle and his music. As parents of a child with severe food allergies we often wonder what food allergies mean to our daughter. When Melody dances and sings Kyle's music we get an idea. Thank you very much Kyle for making a difference in our daughter’s life and experience with food allergies. For us, Food Allergies Rock!
DeeDee and Mark Jacobsen, Seattle, WA - I have a 2 year old son who is allergic to peanuts, eggs, and cow's milk. He loves listening to your CD, and even dances along to it. I just wanted to let you know it is the best educational tool I have purchased to educate him about his allergies. Susan from British Columbia
- I am a 13 year old boy who has many allergies, like many of the kids that email you have. I am allergic to milk, peanuts, cayenne pepper, cats, dogs, and most other types of animals that have fur. I have been made fun of for having allergies many times at school, and I really wanted someone to talk to. A while ago, my mom told me about a singer that made songs about food allergies. I was very pleased. I have come to really appreciate your music. I especially love Epi-man! Your songs explain everything there is to know about allergies. It makes me very happy that you are teaching other kids about allergies that don't even have it. When you do that, it will really help the kids with allergies to be able to connect with their non-allergy friends much better. You really are making a better world for children with food allergies. So, I just wanted to thank you with all of my heart. You are a very talented singer and songwriter, and I will remember your name for years to come. Matthew from Florida
- We are getting ready for our daughter to start Kindergarten this fall. Had Parent Info Night tonight and other meetings etc. One thing is that we were told by the school nurse is to make sure that she always tells a grown up if she has a reaction at school. When I was talking to her about this the other day she said, "Mom, I know that already. Kyle told me in one of his songs!" Your lyrics are so on target. THANKS!!! Carla from Massachusetts
- When my children want to dance they choose your music over the others and they sing right along with the words. I have a 6, 4, and 1 year old with my oldest having a life-threatening milk allergy. My 4 year old has outgrown his milk and soy allergy. My oldest wanted me to make sure you know that we have both your CDs and they certainly bring smiles to their little faces (and ours for that matter), all while providing simple lessons to them about not hidding a reaction and always carrying your medicine. So, thank you so much for all you do! Jennifer from New York
- Hi Kyle, my name is Matthew. I live in Cincinnati, Ohio. I am 6 and I am allergic to dairy and artificial colors and flavors. I outgrew egg allergy. I am a great fan of you and I love your songs! My favorite songs are Stop please don't feed me, Epi Man, and No dairy please! Are you going to make any more songs? Or come to Cincinnati? I hope you will because I love your songs! Are you allergic to all of that stuff on I worte a song just for me? Your songs make me feel much better that I will be safer with food allergies! Thank you, Matthew from Florida
- Last Sunday, my daughters were playing with a bunch of other kids. One of the girls noticed my daughter's medical alert bracelet and she was asking a whole bunch of questions. Why do you wear it? What does it say? Why can't you take if off? Where did you get it? She told me afterward that she answered each question but she was getting tired of all the questions and she just wanted to play. She then asked me, "Why was that girl asking so much about my bracelet?" I told her that maybe she had never seen a medical alert bracelet before and maybe she just was curious. I reminded Jessica of your song "Cool Bracelet". I sang your line "Cool Bracelet... can I have one too?" and Jessica started to giggle. When we got home we played your CD and all sang that line really loud. Again, Kyle Dine to the rescue! Helping my little girl realize that she is not alone in this world of allergies.
