Alissa Korytko says she is constantly worrying about how she will feed her eight-month-old daughter Rylee.

“I’ve been like a wreck … When we opened up the last can of formula, I couldn’t even describe that gut-wrenching feeling,” the Hamilton mother said. “I don’t know what I’m going to be able to do to help her.”

Rylee is allergic to milk, an allergy Korytko also had as an infant. The first few weeks of her life, her daughter frequently had rashes and diarrhea.

“She wasn’t gaining any weight because her body wasn’t taking in any of the nutrients and the water, so that she was just dehydrated,”
