"It started the panic inside of me" - Brittany Mahomes narrates nervous tale of son Bronze’s ER scare
Brittany Mahomes, the wife of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, had a scare with her son Bronze. The scare resulted in a visit to the emergency room, and Mahomes took to her Instagram to narrate what happened.
Mahomes says she was doing some early allergy testing with Bronze when he was around 9 months old after their daughter Sterling was dealing with allergies.
However, as Brittany was giving Bronze some stuff, he had an allergic reaction.
“With Bronze, I was doing early introduction,” Brittany said, via PageSix. "I was trying out different things with Bronze, and it was our first day with nuts, and it’s just, like, a little packet of powder that you add to his bottle.
“And so he took his bottle, and then within 30 or so minutes, he became very irritable, very fussy. I took his diaper off, and it was just hives and welts everywhere.”
The incident took place in August 2023, and Mahomes says it was scary for her.
“It started the panic inside of me,” she said. "That’s when we rushed to the emergency room. Just seeing his entire body covered in welts and hives and him being so uncomfortable was probably one of the scariest moments of my life.”
Patrick Mahomes said he knew it was bad by how scared Brittany was. Luckily, once they rushed Bronze to the ER, the doctors were able to help him and get everything under control.
Since the accident, Brittany and Patrick Mahomes partnered with AUVI-Q, an epinephrine injection, to spread awareness of food allergies.
