Ruby is 9, and she’s had terrible food allergies all of her life. She doesn’t let that stop her.

We go for car rides, which she loves, and although she can’t be outside in long intervals, she loves exploring as much as she can.

She is afraid of stairs, though. We’ve never figured that one out, but we take it as it comes. Sometimes she goes right up the steps to the car, and other times, we walk around the building if she feels like she can’t face the stairs. Ruby just leads the way!
