Among Donna’s many accomplishments, after losing her first grandchild to Group B Strep, she researched and created the Canadian Group B Strep Association, and lobbied for standard testing of GBS for all pregnant women. She was on CBC’s Market Place in 1993 and received 7,000 letters from across Canada raising awareness of GBS in pregnancy and new born babies. She was proud to be a part of all the babies that have survived GBS since the protocols were established in 1997.
