Parker Byrd had a bright future and big goals when he committed to play baseball at East Carolina University. Following in his parents’ footsteps at ECU was a dream, but everything changed in the summer of 2022. A lake trip with some teammates ended in a boating accident that required Byrd to be airlifted back to ECU’s hospital.
During his recovery, doctors told him he would need to have his leg amputated or risk even more health issues. As his new reality was setting in, his mother didn’t let him give up his baseball dreams despite the amputation. She encouraged him to be the first person to play a college baseball game with a prosthetic leg.
That’s exactly what he did on February 16, 2024 when he drew a walk in his team’s win over Rider.
We talk about catastrophic injuries all the time, but this is a remarkable story that we hope can inspire you. In the second part of our conversation, Byrd talks about the support he’s received, why his faith has strengthened, and the advice he give others for recovery.
Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:
0:00 – His motivation
4:23 – Making his return to baseball
8:16 – His faith
11:31 – Advice he’d give others
13:23 – What’s next for Parker?
