This coming September Carolyn & Scott Zona will be putting on their Second annual HOGS FOR HOPE BIKE RUN & PIG ROAST. This event will raise money to help Dr. Hannah and her team at Childrens Hospital with their research regarding S.I.D.S.

While trying to promote this event we have come to realize how much of a stigma surrounds it, even still.

We are trying to get the word out, to make people aware, to educate, and hopefully, someday see an end to the number one killer of infants. So much is still not known.

Dr.Kinney and her colleagues in the Department of Pathology have made tremendous strides in their efforts to understand, diagnose and even prevent SIDS. Groundbreaking studies out of the CJ Murphy Laboratory point to a deficiency of serotonin in the lower brain stem which could lead to SIDS infants being unable to respond to stressors during sleep, that a healthy baby without this deficiency, would have no problem handling.

With the help and support from all of you, Dr.Kinney hopes to identify and treat infants with serotonin brain stem defect early, and develop preventative treatments that would correct the serotonin deficiency -potentially eliminating the risk for death.

Please help us get the word out, to make people aware of S.I.D.S. To help us help Dr. Kinney and her team find a cause and a cure. To help stop unnecessary suffering of families everywhere.
