Page 6 - The Ultimate Guidebook for Teens with Food Allergies

Aaron Sutherland - Aaron is a freelance writer and editor who also happens to have allergies. Growing up with potentially life-threatening allergies is not always easy. It is his hope that this e-book will make life a little easier for current and future teens with allergies. He became involved with this project because he knows first-hand how much stress and time a resource like this would have saved him were it around when he was a teenager.
