Meet David

Age: 16

What advice he would like to give to others with food allergies:
“I would advise them to always be safe by having their medicine with them at all times. But don’t let food allergies rule your life! Food allergies require you to be methodical and vigilant, but they do not have to limit what you do, where you go, and who you are.”
