April 2009
NH Governor, John Lynch gave Max a Proclamation declaring:
MAY-New Hampshire Celiac Disease Awareness Month.
Flyers were posted in Grocery Stores, Doctors Offices, Schools and more in the month of May to help raise awareness and save lives! Many companies and organizations in the state of NH will be helping with this effort.

We started our company to help raise awareness
and to educate the world about:
and
SENSORY PROCESSING DISORDER
Home
to:
Video Game for People on Restricted Food Diets
And More!
Here are some of our goals:
*We would like to introduce our club idea to all elementary school aged kids.
*We would like to help raise awareness of food-restricted diets, not just Celiac Disease.
*Help
other children and adults understand that “FUN” doesn’t always need to
involve food.
*Help others develop a strong positive ATTITUDE about their restrictive diets and hold the health benefits above the sad feelings that can be present sometimes.
*Provide
information to people on restrictive diets, that anger towards people who do
not understand is understandable but unnecessary. At the present time the
general population has not been educated about these concerns. We hope to
help change this.
*We
hope to help others understand that expecting people who are not on
restricted diets to “STOP” eating in front of us is very unrealistic and
can cause bad feelings. Again, this is all in the ATTITUDE!
*Provide
ideas, hints and “tricks” on helping ourselves and others make parties,
special occasions and everyday easier for kids like me without too much
trouble. By helping others find non-food alternatives to games, rewards and
surprises. Not to say that no food will be present, that won’t happen, but
from time to time it would be healthier for everyone in the world, not just
kids like me to only have one or two food treats at parties instead of bags
full.
