EB can be broadly divided into three major catagories: Simplex, Junctional and Dystropic.

Working to meet basic needs, give hope, and support child-serving organizations in Central Ohio. These catagories can be further subtyped based on inheritance and clinical features. The rate of SUDC in Australia was also lower than that reported for the United States and Ireland.

But instead were faced with a statement that Copper’s cause of death was “unascertainable”. Since its inception in 2012, the Brighter Days Foundation has now raised over $950,000 through events, raffles and auctions. Milder cases of EB may become apparent when a child crawls, walks, runs or when young adults become more physically active.The Cooper Trewin Memorial SUDC Research Fund was established after the tragic passing of Cooper Trewin on 6 February 2010 aged 16 months and is supporting SIDS and Kids to fund advocacy and Australian research into the cause for sudden and unexplained death in children. Importantly SUDC itself is not a cause of death and is applied as a diagnostic term when all known causes of death have been excluded.

"Sudden Unexplained Death In Childhood (SUDC) is the sudden and unexpected death of a child over the age of 12 months, which remains unexplained after a thorough case investigation is conducted. Using the National Coronial Information System (NCIS) they determined, for the first time, that the cause of death could not be determined in over 10% of children aged between 1 and 4 years of age in Australia and many of these cases fit the criteria for SUDC. This special event benefits three incredible central Ohio charities - Stowe Mission of Central Ohio, Habitat for Humanity-MidOhio, and The Ohio State University James Cancer Center.

SUDC is defined as the sudden and unexplained death of a child over the age of 12 months which remains unexplained after a thorough case investigation is conducted.

It has been somewhat reassuring, but also heartbreaking, to know that there are other parents in the same boat as us.

Over the years, we have become one of the most trusted and effective charitable foundations, working hard to improve the lives of those in need. While SUDC can occur in children aged at any point from 1 to 18 years of age, it has the greatest prevalence in those aged between 1 and 4 years. DEBRA Australia assists in improving the lives of children and adults living with EB, the debilitating and sometimes fatal condition, by providing necessary support services, medical supplies, aids and equipment, support services, assistance with transition to independent living and research focusing on different aspects of EB.Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) is a rare disease whereby the skin blisters and peels at the slightest touch. We’ve dedicated a lot of man-hours and invested countless resources to this charitable cause, and hope you’ll help us continue this work. When our happy and healthy son Cooper died in his sleep in 2010 at only 16 months of age we were devastated and full of questions.

While we will never get our son back the outcomes of this study have formed the first steps in trying to understand this devastating issue at a local level so that it receives the awareness and public recognition that is needed to prevent any child succumbing to “SUDC” in the future.
