Unexplained
Child Death

Kathy Callahan of Parma Heights holds a photo of her daughter Isabella, who died unexpectedly and without explanation at age 16 months, in a rare case of Sudden Unexplained Death in Childhood. The diagnosis is similar to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) except that SIDS only applies to children who die at less than 12 months old. In the baby crib at left is her new daughter Mia, who recently turned one year old.
