Thank you for taking the time to read Maxi’s story – as told by his mother.
Maximus and his family would like to thank the doctors, staff & volunteers at the Royal Children’s Hospital (Melbourne). And the organisations that have assisted us along the way (listed below).

Also very special thanks to Rabbi Daniel Rabin and Rebbetzin Sarah Rabin at North Eastern Jewish Centre for their prayers and continued hope.

The support for Maximus just keeps growing stronger each day making our lives less stressful and easier to manage and focus on what’s important. Every little effort counts.
Love and peace and good health to all.

I wish I had the answers for you. As a mother of two children under 4 I can all but imagine what you are going through. I will bring up your story to everyone I come across in my work within the health sector. I think you are doing a brave and fantastic thing going public like this. God willing you get some answers soon. Good Luck.
Yael, a friend suggested you post the story to Reddit Health. May help in putting the word out.
Yael, it was so delightful to meet you today at the RCH and to share our stories over morning tea. Maxi has THE best possible advocate in the world, you! Best wishes for your continues search for help for Maxi. I will be sharing your website with all my online disability groups in the hope that someone, somewhere in the world, will have some insight for you. You are a beautiful soul and I’m so glad we could share our blessings with one another.
Thanks Karen, It was so nice to meet you as well. Thanks also for sharing Maxi’s story. And thanks for sharing your story with me. You are an amazing mother. Best wishes, Yael xx
