Person D has adopted a strict vegetarian diet since the time he joined the animal welfare group. His current diet had eliminated him from consuming proteins from red meat, poultry, fish, eggs, milk, and also high carbohydrate content food. The vegetarian diet provided him high amount of fibers, vitamins, iron, and micronutrients. The current consumption is also free from excess fat and protein. Though the protein intake has decreased tremendously, the wellness quotient of Person D has increased, and he can involve actively in animal welfare group exercises. The immediate and visible effect of the current diet plan is Person D’s weight loss, which makes him look healthier.

The family moved to be nearer to Yvonne s grandparents after the breakup of her parents relationship. Yvonne is tall for her age and is bothered by the looks and sexual comments about her breasts from boys in her school.

Her husband, Alan, worked at a local factory, and it was difficult for him to get time away as well. Their son was five years old and starting kindergarten the next month. One of the requirements for kindergarten was documentation of immunization records. Carmen, who provided education on PHIPA-related issues and assisted facilities with form design as part of her job, called Dr. Stallone, her son’s paediatrician’s office. Carmen asked Jessica, who answered the phone at Dr. Stallone’s office, if she would be able to fax a release of information form to the paediatrician’s office and have the office fax the information to her because she was unable to get there during office hours.
