Claire's Ride for a Reason SUDC occurs in children beyond the age of twelve months. The cause of death remains unexplained after a thorough case investigation and autopsy. SUDC is a diagnosis of exclusion, in other words, a diagnosis of SUDC is made when other causes of death are not identified after a thorough evaluation. SUDC is not new, but it is very rare. Its incidence is approximately 1 death per 100,000 children. In comparison, the incidence of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is 50 times more common.The SUDC Program was created in September 2001 as part of the CJ Foundation for SIDS. It was developed to provide a centralized resource for information, support, research and advocacy. It serves families and professionals affected by the tragedy of SUDC, and promotes awareness of SUDC in communities.Don and Maryann Tomaszewski will be sponsoring the Second-Annual Claire’s Ride for a Reason in June 2007, a benefit for the SUDC Program held in memory of their daughter. This years event will include a cycling tour from the northern tip of NJ to its' southern tip. All funds raised in Claire’s honor will be presented to the CJ Foundation for the advancement of SUDC research and the funding of family support services |
