Vax Injured Teen Athlete with Cherie Romney

<p>Cherie Romney discusses her family's vaccine injuries with RFK Jr. Cherie's son Everest Romney, 17, &nbsp;received the vaccine April 21 and began experiencing neck pain, fever and severe headaches one day later. His mother said her son’s pediatrician initially dismissed the symptoms as a pulled neck muscle.&nbsp;</p>

<p>After more than a week of symptoms and being unable to freely move his neck, the family got this diagnosis: two blood clots inside his brain, and one on the outside.</p>

<p>“In a million years, I never expected it,” <a href="https://www.fox13now.com/news/local-news/utah-teen-hospitalized-with-blood-clots-in-his-brain" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Romney said</a>. “The worst thing, the worst thing, is to have the doctor come in and say, ‘OK, well, we found two blood clots inside his brain.’ The hardest thing was I let him get that shot. And he was healthy and well before. But you question it, you can’t help but question it when it all goes wrong.”</p>

<p>Romney doesn’t <a href="https://www.abc4.com/news/local-news/draper-teenager-hospitalized-with-blood-clots-after-covid-19-vaccine-shot/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">want to discourage</a> parents from letting their kids get the vaccine because she believes each parent must make the decision for their children, but she wished her choice had been a different one.</p>
