  • The Night My Life Changed Forever: A Mother’s Carbon Monoxide Story
    Dec 29 2022

    In January 1996, a family of five went to bed on a typical cold winter evening in Minnesota, unknowingly aware that high levels of carbon monoxide from a malfunctioning furnace would take the lives of their two youngest children while they slept that chilly winter night. Cheryl Burt painstakingly describes the devastating events that changed them forever. Now one of the nation’s leading advocates for carbon monoxide alarms, Cheryl takes listeners into her families pre and post lives with a raw and emotional narrative. She shares the lifelong pain that was deeply etched into her more than twenty-five years ago and how her excruciating losses grew into a passion to prevent others from enduring a similar tragedy. Her work as a home safety influencer has taken her to senate hearings and other high-profile settings to get carbon monoxide ordinances passed that prevent other families from enduring the same outcome. This is a soul bearing educational story that will change how you look after your home and care for your family members.
