What happened over Sophia Herzog Sachs’ four years
of life was nothing short of extraordinary.
As her family reached out for help after a diagnosis of
Niemann-Pick Disease, Type A, the walls between people,
disciplines, and geographic boundaries dissolved—
fostering compassion, integration, collaboration and
creativity. In this supportive family-centered environment,
people’s hearts were free to break open,
and a healing community was born.
Now, imagine a world where all families of children with life
threatening are not alone—a world where the collective
healing wisdom of humanity is accessible to all, especially
children thought to be incurable, and where families find
strength, hope and healing through their communities.
Healing in Community Online™
An integrated, Web-based survival kit for families of
children with life threatening conditions that informs,
supports and enables families to harness the power
of community to address all of their needs—physical,
emotional, financial, social, cultural and spiritual.
