22 EP PARENT HEART WATCH Continued from page 21 CONFERENCE MARCH 2008 there was laughter, tears, healing and shared compassion; it is our shared aim to continue our efforts for all the people that still need us to represent the national voice. On Saturday morning, we were fortunate to also host a physician panel consisting of Drs. Berger, Campbell, and Drezner, who all support the PHW’s membership in our quest to stamp out SCA in young people. More direct questions were asked by the audience, and we were able to share our desire to be more involved and offer continued support by PHW to the medical communities nationwide. Later in the day, Parent Heart Watch’s PSA Committee shared the “Rewind” public service announcement video, and asked each one of us to take this back to our communities and request viewing time by our local television and cable networks. All of these programs within the leadership seminar were invaluable to the first-time members, and added more encouragement and support to the returning membership. About PHW Parent Heart Watch calls on the talents and passion of parents whose children have suffered from SCA, as well as with others who support our cause. Its mission has been brought to life through many programs. Since the group’s inception in 2005, Parent Heart Watch members have trained thousands in CPR/AED response. They have placed thousands of defibrillators across the country, screened children across the country, spoken at or attended local, state and national venues addressing SCA in youth and introduced or passed laws in several states. Advocates from across the country have also gathered together to work towards education and prevention of one of the leading causes of childhood death. Collectively, these efforts will significantly reduce the deaths caused by SCA, the leading cause of death in the United States. Thank you to everyone for your continued contributions, efforts and support to prevent these tragedies and raise awareness in your local areas. Above all we are here for you, to shoulder this effort, assist in your struggles and celebrate with you the victories of saving young lives in honor of your child, my child and all the children that have passed too young. Keep up the good work! We are all making a difference together. Many families, one cause: the national voice!
