    Share your loved one with us, New website feature

    We are collecting photos and short stories on those lost to HCM for a memorial page on the website. If you would like your loved one featured please email us a picture (or mail it and we can scan it) along with a little bit about them. Please include happy memories (silly stories, favorite expressions...), hopes and dreams and whatever you would like the world to know about them.


    Once we get this up and running we will be looking to add a 'survivors' page as well - but lets take this one step at a time.

    Best to all!
    Lisa

    Lisa,
    I think that is a really good idea. It would be nice to look at all the faces of people who had hcm. I lost my son some years back and my father too and I would like to show their pictures. I think it is important to remeber.
