Parker Romney

This year our Special Tournament Honoree is two-year old Parker Romney. He was diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension (PH) when he was just 10 months old. A few weeks later, after complications from a cardiac catheterization, he spent 36 days including his 1st birthday, in the ICU. It was questionable as to whether he would survive. He finally came home from the hospital with oxygen, a permanent IV in his chest and several oral medications. More than a year has passed since then and Parker has made a lot of progress. He appears healthy thanks to his good doctors and the medications now available to treat PH.  But we know with PH looks can be deceiving—the PH demon still lurks inside.
