My story

12 Apparently fit & healthy under 35 year olds die each week in the UK alone of undetected Heart conditions..

My Son David died in his sleep on the 14th December 2005, Aged 16. He was a full of life teenager with a wicked sense of humour who was loved by so many. This has totally torn my world apart & to put how i feel into words is impossible, Knowing that so many other people are suffering this terrible unnecessary heartbreak each day I want to try and make other parents aware of what is going on right under our noses, young people diying suddenly every day.

I would therefore urge you all to get your children checked out in one of the many screening centres setup by CRY. Just a simple ECG could save a life and at the small cost of £35.00 there is really no reason not to. PLEASE check out the video on the CRY website of David Walliams (of Little Britain fame) explaining how to go about it. Don't wait until its too late!!

The photo opposite is of Dave in Dubai doing what he loved most, this was taken in Aug 05, just 4 months before he died.
