Eli's story

Q96 Empowerplus is why we are here...It has given my family something no other product and no other source has been able to offer... HAPPINESS...CONTROL...CALM...HAPPINESS...CLARITY...STABILITY...HAPPINESS... HEALTH...HOPE oh and did I mention HAPPINESS!!
I guess so you can really appreciate how Q96 has helped our family, first you will need to know a little about us.
We are a family of 7. Mum, Dad and 5 bright and gorgeous children.  Our first 4 kids were VERY easy going. Infact so easy that we decided that we should have more (seeing as we thought it was all due to our awesome parenting skills!)  Then came Eli.  We quickly realised that our 4 wonderfully easy going and super easy kids were not so much a result of our 'awesome parenting' but infact just personality! We knew Eli was different from a young age. As he grew, his difficulties became more apparent.  He was diagnosed with Developmental Delay...What does that even mean? He had low muscle tone, he couldn't sit up and support himself... He cried ALOT, couldn' t eat properly, he didn't speak among a string of lots of little things.  Much of his early years were spent on appointments with Physiotherapists, Paedatricians, Occupational therapist, Speech pathologist, Hearing, Plastic surgeons and Social Workers.  With alot of hard work he concurred many of his difficulties. He went to a speech school for his first couple of years of school then we moved him to mainstream.  He would prefer to play alone side other children rather than with them. He likes to tell people what to do.  he gets frustrated ALOT. He doesn't understand some things..He misses ALOT of the social cues that most kids his age would understand. He's impulsive. He likes to stick to rules. He finds it hard to stay on task and gets distracted easily.  Anyway...you get my point.  Well, it came to a head one week when for no particular reason...he decided to stab a girl in the arm in his class.  WHOAAA... He can't tell you why he did it, he doesn't know.  We put him straight on the Q96 Empowerplus and we noticed a dramatic change in within a week.  His meltdowns became less frequent.  We could reason with him.  We would ask him to do something and instead of having a tantrum and screaming, he replied with a sweet and gentle 'yes mum' or 'yes dad'!  We have noticed as time goes on,he is being less impulsive and better able to control his emotions.  I don't know how it works but I am so grateful that it does.  I am so grateful that we have a son that is happy.  He sleeps well, eats better, behaves better, plays better and is less uptight all the time.  I love that he is happy. We owe all this to Q96 Empowerplus.  Eli likes the Banana Berries and takes it morning and afternoon...simple!  No medication and no nasty side effects.
