What's Up With Greg? Medikidz Explain Growth Hormone Deficiency
 

PRICE: $11.99
Everybody loves visiting the fairground and Greg and his friends are no exception! But Greg's day is ruined when he finds out that he is too short to go on the one ride he's been looking forward to the most! Like many kids with Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD) Greg needs to learn that he has a medical condition and that he's not just short - luckily the Medikidz are on hand to help.

Pump, Chi, Skinderella, Gastro, Axon and their trusty robot Abacus, the superheroes with unique superpowers, whisk Greg off for a ride with a difference! They take him to Mediland (a distant planet shaped like a human body) and give him a personal tour of the brain to help him understand the causes behind GHD.

Join Greg on his special adventure as he gets right inside the pituitary gland to learn about hormone production. With their superhero abilities, the Medikidz show Greg how things can go wrong when there is a breakdown in communication in the growth chain of command. Greg gets to witness the effects for himself when he is given a close up encounter with different hormones and the builders at the bone construction site! The Medikidz will help Greg to understand and get to grips with his GHD and how treatments like Somatropin can work to help his condition.
