Hunter's Hope Radiothon Segment
Here is the segment that Bill & I did at the Hunter's Hope Radiothon. The radio station did an excellent job of putting it together. Grey Street plays in the background.
I am the mom of 4 boys. My youngest, Greyson, was diagnosed with Krabbes Disease. He left his broken body behind on 12/12/08, just six days shy of his 1st birthday. I am a Special Education teacher. My husband is a pediatric nurse. We have been married for 16 years. Together, with the help of many, we have used Grey's life and loss to try to expand Texas' newborn screening program. HB 1795 was signed by Governor Rick Perry on 6/19/09, establishing Greyson's Law. However, it lost it's funding before even one baby was screened. We have established Grey's Gift Memorial Foundation to teach other of the importance of newborn screening.
