Every year, hundreds of Australians die from sudden cardiac arrest, often leaving families with more questions than answers. It's a complicated grief known by mother Anna Brakey, whose 22-year-old daughter Josie died suddenly in her sleep. She says Josie was a "lively" and "thriving" young woman, and that her death came without explanation. Anna is among a group going to Canberra to push for greater awareness and research into the issue, and support for affected families.
