For Mahomes and her son, whose full name is Patrick Lavon Mahomes III, learning about the allergy the hard way is something a parent never wants to go through because of how serious the situation can be. In this case, it was a wake-up call to Mahomes to help by using her platform. 

That is why she partnered with AUVI-Q, an epinephrine injection used to treat allergic reactions in infants, to make this video, where both her children, including her daughter, Sterling Skye, were present.
