Storytelling: Deadly Delays: p_fps_kwgmj_deadlydelay08

Aside from delays in getting screens to the labs, sometimes lab hours themselves can cause a delay. Labs in half the country are closed on weekends and holidays which means children born later in the week will have delayed test results. This was the case for Sarah Wilkerson's son Noah, who died at the age of five days old with an undiagnosed metabolic disorder in 2009. She touches the engraved memorial tile bearing her son's name as she visits the Rowan Tree Foundation Angel Memorial Plaza in Parker, Colorado.
