PH Story: Jackson’s Journey with Pulmonary Hypertension
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a devastating disease that has no cure and only a few treatment options available. Unfortunately, it can affect anyone, adults and children. Treatment options for children are pretty much non-existent which makes this an even more terrible disease.
Pediatric pulmonary hypertension is similar to idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension in adults, which is when the cause is unknown and etiology is unclear. And that’s what happened to little Jackson who you can meet in this video shared by JaynaW67.
