She said: "I was worried about him going away, because of his allergies, and so I followed all the instructions very carefully. The security worker didn't check with Ben's teacher, and he didn’t consult his doctor’s letter or his care plan. He simply saw that Ben had too much liquid and poured it away.
Emma, a teacher, added: "When the school trip came around, I wanted him to go and have fun, but I was also worried."Emma said: "I had packed two lots of medication, one in hand luggage, one in the hold, so if he had any problems in the airport or on the journey, he had his epi-pen and his antihistamine.
