Parker was one of those boy in the bubble types. Description: Follow Parker, a severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) little boy in his battle against adenosine deaminase (ADA) deficiency. Parker is currently participating in a Gene Therapy trial in Italy.
No, truly. I found out about him a little after Cameron was born and I was still at home with her.
I read and cried a lot.
I checked back on Parker for the first time in a long time this morning, as he’s been in my head for a few days.
I looked at the photos from his second birthday and I am just so, so happy, that he can have his birthday party; throw his cake around; hug his cousin Jett and just be a ‘normal as can be’ kind of kid.
He makes me happy, and he reminds me that nothing on this planet can really keep you down.
I look at his face, covered in chocolate and smiling and I hope he stays well.
You, Parker, are a superhero.
