The Central Virginia Guild was started in 1976 by three families who did not know each other. We had one family who had lost a child to SIDS and two families who had babies on monitors. We all shared the same goal – we wanted to see an end to SIDS some day. We joined together and started a guild here with tremendous cooperation from the medical community. We worked mostly with Dr. David Draper and Dr. Edwin Myer.
