Ruthie Nash is your typical four-year-old in many ways. She loves to color, play with her pets, and sing the ABC's at the top of her voice. But unlike many other preschoolers, she copes with several severe allergies that restrict her to a diet of only elemental formula, red meat, chicken, pork, corn, and rice.
