Losing Our Daughter and Finding Our Way with Myra Sack and Matt Goldstein Parent Footprint with Dr. Dan

Dr. Dan speaks to husband-and-wife Myra Sack and Matt Goldstein about Fifty-seven Fridays: Losing Our Daughter, Finding Our Way – their powerful memoir honoring the daughter they lost and chronicling their journey helping her live and die.

At fifteen months old, Havi was diagnosed with Tay-Sachs, a fatal neurodegenerative disease that can be revealed through genetic testing but was misreported to the couple. Havi was given just a year to live. Myra and Matt decide to celebrate Havi’s short life and vow to show her as much of the world as they can and they do.

This episode is a beautiful and moving discussion about two parents’ poignant and tragic journey to help their daughter. Myra and Matt’s hope is that as Havi’s messengers they will make the lives of others a bit gentler, a bit more beautiful, a bit more forgiving, a bit more generous.
