Participating in the procession is a Newtown Square girl whose need for new lungs led to a landmark decision from the national transplant board.
Sarah Murnaghan, 11, is the Grand Marshall of the parade, which will begin at 10 a.m. at St. Alban’s Circle in Newtown Square and continue down West Chester Pike to the Broomall Firehouse on Malin Road in Broomall.
The event will be a chance for Sarah and her family to not only celebrate the nation’s independence but also a major victory in the fight to give sick children a better shot at donor lungs. On June 23, the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network voted to give children more consideration for adult lungs. Last year, a federal judge had ordered the network to add Murnaghan to the adult list as she battled end-stage cystic fibrosis.
After two transplants — one failed — Sarah is now breathing on her own for the first time in three years.
