I am soo sorry for your loss! My son is now 19 months. we have been the hospital more then 9 times in the past 19 months! we found out about carter MCADD when he was born. and i am so thankful for it. i wish there was a way to get more info out there. every time we go to the hospital there is someone we need to explain MCADD too and its soo annoying! i wish there was something bigger we could do!

My best friend lost her daughter 6 yrs. ago, and still grieves for her daily. But, she is now a grief counselor. I admire people who turn sorrow into action to help others. God Bless you and your efforts. Your granddaughter was beautiful here, but we know she is shining brightly now in Heaven!

Annabelle is now 17 months old and was diagnosed with MCADD at 2 weeks old. First 6 months were hard (feeds every 3hrs) and we had a few trips to hospital but just during her first year when she occasionaly wouldn't eat or was sick. Touch wood the last 6mths have been great and if she doesn't eat much we give her a bottle in the night with some Polycal. She's just had Chicken Pox and although she didn't eat much we just gave crispy snacks, raisins and little tastes along with regular Polycal.
She has a big sister (3yrs) who doens't have MCADD and the 2 are inseparable.
We're now trying for Baby #3 and know that she too may get MCADD but that's not stopping us (and why should it)
God bless you all and for those just finding out their children have this - don't panic or read too many horror stories on the Internet because it just makes you cry or feel terrible. Focus on the great times you'll have and by knowing the protocol to follow when your child is sick you can avoid tragedy. Available on email if you need someone to talk more - Steve (father of Annabelle who has MCADD)

My granddaughter Bridget who is a week old toady and my first grandchild, was diagnosed with MCAD today. It is heart breaking to read these stories of such beautiful children. I'm hoping that there are some encouraging stories out there? Bridget is my heart and she has brought so much joy into her families life over the last 7 days. God bless all of you and I will keep you in my prayers! Brian

I am so so so deeply sorry. I lost my dad a couple of months ago unexpectedly. He developed a condition called Acute Respiritory Distress Syndrome and was on life support for 10 days before we had to make the decision to take him off of it. It was a tramatic and devestating experience for me. I am only 21 and he was only 57. It is the worst feeling in the world to lose someone so close so unexpectedly and it leaves wounds that will never heal completely. My thoughts are with you this holiday season.

First grandson just diagnosed with MCADD. The hospital screening detected the high count. I had never heard of it. Anxious to find out more information. I'm sorry for your loss, and I appreciate that you are working for awareness.
