This is a heartfelt story from a member of  the Pulmonary Hypertension Association Australia – Marissa. She originally had PH diagnosed after the birth of her 3rd child and subsequently had a lung transplant, but was devastatingly re-diagnosed with PH afterward. Maybe the lungs she received had PH?
