I was just about to add a happy message to this site, I know a rarity for me, but I was reading the local paper and I am devastated. A young lad, 27, Anthony, complained of a headache, just like Stephen, went to bed and died, his parents have had a report of not known cause of death, just like me, I waited about 7 months for a reason, looks like they will have to, this is just not good enough. This week I have told you about Hannah, Jack and now Anthony, please get friends and family to sign my petition, I am so gutted, if this happens to what 4-8 or even 12 a week, and we have heard about three, how many do we not hear about, gosh we have to make a difference. I am in tears, this is so hard. Sorry to once agian be the bearer of bad news, my good news is not so good after allXX Thank you for your continued support XX

With all the technology of today, you would think this could be avoided easily, but no. Simon has appointment with surgeaon next week, operation should have been done months ago, this just is not good enough, this is tragic XX.

I've done it - sent e-mail to my MP and Euro MP and will do so every week until we have a satisfactory answer. All you good folk out there why don'y you do the same? you'll most likely be able to get their address from the library.

Anthony parents have not got cause of Death yet, I know it is SADS, by reading headlines and story, but like me, bless them, not only have they got to deal with Son dying, they have got to wait about 7 months for reason, and when they get it, will it make them feel any better, and in those seven months, they could lose another family member to SADS, we need to make more people aware of this silent killer, and how to avoid thisXX.
