About Me

Mandy Hitchcock
In May 2010, my daughter Hudson died at the age of 17 months old from a very aggressive bacterial meningitis infection. Before anyone knew she had more than a common toddler virus, it was too late to save her life. One day, she was a perfectly healthy, bright, precocious, loving child, and the next day, she was fatally ill. We said goodbye to her on May 13, 2010. This blog is where I record the journey of learning to live without her. It is a journey that will never end.
