Sudden Infant Death Syndrome took their children. Today, parents who have lost children to SIDS gathered near LaFortune Park for a memorial and awareness walk. The groups, Healing Oklahoma Hearts and the Great Battle Against SIDS teamed up with Tulsa County for the first annual â€œEarly Pregnancy and Infant Loss Memorial and Awareness Walk.â€

Parents say theyâ€™re working to find answers for their loss.

"There needs to be more studies on it 'cause I'm sure there's a cure,â€ said Linda Lancaster, a grandmother.

Others say not knowing what caused a childâ€™s death is hard to accept.

"And, that's the heartbreaking thing about it because you don't have an answer. You donâ€™t have an answer why your baby is gone,â€ said Martin Maynard.

Saturday's walk ended with a symbolic balloon release and a candle light vigil.
