Throughout Blair’s life, we met many other families going through similar battles with Sanfilippo. One of those families was the Siedmans. After Blair passed away in 2017, I was inspired by the Courageous Parents Network, a support website for parents, to start The B.L.A.I.R. Connection. Jennifer Siedman is Outreach Coordinator for this incredible resource. I had the pleasure of sitting down with Jennifer for an interview a few months ago.
