Parents

CartoonMD® was designed to make learning about diabetes easy, in a format children and adults would enjoy.   Along with comic strips, our new interactive video game The Furdmont Chronicles™: Main Street Mayhem™ is a fun adventure game for anyone to play.  It just happens to teach the player about diabetes without them realizing it through allegories and metaphors to create an Allegory Adventure™ game.

For those interested in diabetes learning, The Furdmont Chronicles™ is the new way to teach families about diabetes.  Play and have fun.  Learning is going on in the background while you play!  At the end of each episode, the tie in to diabetes points will be revealed.

It is our hope that extra knowledge will help those with diabetes live healthier lives.
