Please do not read this if you are easily upset-that is not my intent.
As most of you know I lost my Son to SADS-and each morning I wake up (if I have slept) with a heavy heart. Unless this has happened to you it is hard to understand the raw agony it leaves you with-your life changes forever-I have a petition to ask the government to make these tests readily available for ALL our children, at the moment it is just those who could be a SADS candidate that get tested-and that takes forever as well-I know I can never ever bring my Stephen back, and I also know that I will have to live without him and feel the rawness in my heart every single day-but if I can prevent others from this devastation then at least Stephen will not have died in vain-he was just 34 with everything to live for-I want better for your children and I need all the help I can get, please sign my petition and ask your friends and family's to do the same-as but for the Grace of God go I. I will keep nudging my petition thread today-thank you.

Yes Jude, thank you for signing-since I learnt that my sisters Son is a strong candidate for this it has me worried, I also have four other children and the tests they were given were basic-I do not want others to be overlooked-so thank you for your help. I hear what you are saying, but this is what keeps me going, I must make a difference.

l understand what you are saying Gillian!!

This silent killer is claiming so many lives - and they pass by as silent as it happens - we need to be made aware of this and how to stop all these needless lossesXX.

Thank you Jennifer, I am getting my family and friends to sign asap.

If you don't know what SADS is, or want some more information, listen to

http://www.bbc.co.uk/fivelive/programmes/fivelivereport.shtml

You will need to have Real Player installed on your computer and the report lasts about 25 minutes.

Please take the time to listen to it.

Thanks Maggy and nudging to save those children/young people. XX.

Thank you Deanna - Bless you - and I also hope you never have to walk in my footsteps, that is why I am desperately trying to make people aware and get the governement to help ALL our children, not just those at risk XX

Good morning folks - I am off to work soon - take a look at the petition now 650 and hopefully still climbingXX Bless you all and thank you - between us we will make the difference.

Hi Gillian,

Have signed and have sent emails to all my contacts asking them to sign as well.

This happened to a colleagues son many years ago. To say she was devastated is an understatement. He was 19.
