The last day Parker Denny was able to attend classes at Sycamore High School was Friday, February 19; That weekend, he went to the hospital with serious headaches, and doctors discovered a tumor on the high school senior s brain. It came as a shock to everyone because we were like he was just here Friday, said Rose Mitchell, a counselor at Sycamore High School.
Surgery to remove the tumor was successful and Denny s outlook is good, but the school district said he developed Posteria Fossa Syndrome, which has affected his ability to walk, talk and swallow.
