| Event Description | Run for Charlee Born at just 35 weeks at the U of U, Charlee Perry surprised her family and medical team with no NICU time or intervention required. At two weeks old, Charlee had multiple episodes where she stopped breathing. She was rushed to the ER and later life flighted to Primary Children's where it was discovered that she has two holes in her heart: a Ventricular Septal Defect and a Parut Foramen Ovale that will require open heart surgery. Until then, Charlee will be on a daily LASIKs to help with the fluid surrounding her heart and lungs. Charlee will have multiple visits with the cardiologist at Primary Children's and weekly to biweekly appointments with her primary care physician to ensure that she is growing and thriving until surgery time. She is our little heart warrior. Give To Those In Need One of Mad Man Races most important objectives is to give to those in need.
