Welcome to Samsmom. I'm Heather and this is my journey as we navigate love, loss, rare disease, hope and resilency. Our family carries a POLG-1 genetic mutation that took my two children, Jack and Samantha and most recently, my brother Ryan. It's not an easy place to be, but here we are- with humor, love and grace, here we are.

Hi All! I had the honor of writing about one of my favorite nonprofits MaxMods, in a local publication. Here are the great things they are doing to bring the Holidays to everyone 🙂 You can donate at http://www.santaslittlehackers.com

Hi- I'm Heather. Welcome to my blog. Almost 20 years of archived life watching my loves impacted by mitochondrial disease. We have a POLG-1 mutation that manifests as mitochondrial myopathy. I have lost my two littles and a brother to this terrible disease but here we are; standing, battered, resilient, and searching for joy everyday. Thanks for being on the journey with us.
