P.U.N.T. is partnering with the Erie County Department of Mental Health to help educate people on how to support those suffering from grief and loss.
On this Sweet Buffalo Monday, News 4 at 7 was joined by Gwen Mysiak of P.U.N.T Pediatric Collaborative, Jonathan McGrath, a father who lost his 2-year-old son to pediatric cancer in May 2021, and Kate Tolley of Be A Blessing Buffalo.
