Trying to make folk aware of this condition-when it strikes it is devestating - my whole life had disappeared - SADS can be detected if we had more resources-please tell your family and friends about this-so they KNOW-and can maybe help-in memory of my SON STEPHEN-who is such a miss. Thank you all for your support. From a very sad and lonely Jennifer.

for those that dont know SADS stands for Sudden Adult Death Syndrome its the equivilent of a cot death in an adult. Jen, try and remember the years you had. not sounding flippant, but there must be some good memorie you can hang on to

Feeling very sad and sentimental so think I should go now-thank you all for your support, without you I think I would have sunk, with you, I am swimming, just, but swimming......tough losing a Son, tougher still when folk say are you not over it yet, No.....not ever.
