Timeline

2008

She fell ill afterwards, and a large benign tumor was found in her left temporal lobe, of which 30 percent was removed by surgeons in two consecutive operations. However, ill health continued to affect Morrision, and a third surgery to remove an aggressive returning tumor resulted in the paralysis of the right side of her body and a speech impediment. Nevertheless, she established two national records in the S5 category, and qualified for the 2008 Summer Paralympics at the US Paralympic Swimming Trials in April 2008, where she did not medal. After her death, an annual award and foundation were established in her honor.

After the Games, Morrison's condition further deteriorated, causing her to sleep heavily, though she attended a reception for the United States Olympic and Paralympic teams hosted by President George W. Bush and the First Lady Laura Bush at the White House in October 2008. She was featured in a NBC Sports documentary about nine American para-athletes training and preparing for the Beijing Paralympics on November 9, 2008. Morrison died on the morning of January 2, 2009 in Sammamish, Washington. On the evening of January 7, a memorial service was held for Morrison at the Timberlake Christian Fellowship in Redmond, Washington, and attended by more than one hundred people. A funeral service that was broadcast on the Internet took place three days later at the Green Hills Memorial Park in Palo Verde, California.

In August 2008, Morrison received recognition for her achievements by Dave Reichert, a member of the United States House of Representatives from Washington's 8th congressional district. After her death, the Morrison family began the annual Marin Morrison Award, and established a scholarship foundation in her name. Pacific North West Swimming founded the Marin Morrison Memorial Meet in 2009 to allow disabled persons to compete in competitive swimming competitions. A documentary film called Touch the Wall — The Marin Morrison Story was released in 2013.

2006

She was put on a strict macrobiotic diet to prevent the release of energy while digesting food, and was enrolled in a homebound academic program at nearby Eastlake High School, by a special education teacher from Lake Washington School District. The family was encouraged by a rehabilitation nurse at the Children's Hospital to enter Morrison into a meet in Michigan in late 2006. She was classified S5, and established two national records, which she was told were enough to attain qualification to the 2008 Summer Paralympics. Morrison reached the 2008 US Paralympic Swimming Trials in Minneapolis, qualifying for the women's S5 50 meters backstroke competition. She was allowed to select two additional events to compete in, opting for the women's 50 metres freestyle and the women's S5 100 metres freestyle disciplines.

2005

When Morrison was a freshman at Collins Hill High School, she broke the 100-yard freestyle and backstroke school records in 2005, and was 1½ seconds slower than the times required to progress to the 2004 United States Olympic Trials. She was one of the favorites to win the Georgia state Class AAAAA championship in the 100-yard freestyle, finishing third in that discipline and 12th in the 100-yard backstroke. During the state meet, Morrison reported having double vision and dizziness. She nevertheless helped the SwimAtlanta team win four relays at the Short Course Championships in Savannah, Georgia, though her times were slower than she expected, and her condition deteriorated.

Morrison visited an optometrist, who told her parents to take her to an emergency room and seek a neurologist. She was later taken to visit a pediatrician, and then to the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta - Egleston Hospital, where an MRI scan revealed a large benign tumor in her left temporal lobe, which controls movement and speech. 30 percent of the tumor was removed by surgeons in consecutive surgeries in March 2005, and Morrison recovered enough to return to swimming 12 days later. She and three friends of hers set new records for the 200-meter medley relay and the 200-meter free relay at a mid-2005 meet in Gwinnett County.

Morrison again had double vision in July 2005. A second MRI scan revealed a return of the tumor, and that it was growing aggressively on her brain's left temporal lobe as a rare cancer called anaplastic astrocytoma ganglioglioma. Her surgery on August 15 saw surgeons remove the tumor though the operation was complicated by a large blood clot that caused paralysis to the right side of her body. Morrison also was afflicted by expressive aphasia with apraxia of speech, and lost all sight in her right eye. Morrison underwent radiation treatments to eliminate remnants of her cancer, and the family moved to Seattle in November 2005, joining the Bellevue Swim Club. The family also saw a team of pedantic oncologists at the Children's Hospital and Regional Medical Center, and were told that Morrison had four to sixth months to live.

1990

Marin Morrison (June 19, 1990 – January 2, 2009) was an American para-swimmer who competed at the 2008 Summer Paralympics in Beijing. She began swimming at the age of two and started to suffer from seizures at that age after a child kicked her head. Morrison broke two school swimming time records as a freshman at Collins Hill High School, and was third in the 100-yard freestyle competition at the Georgia state Class AAA championship in early 2005.

Marin Morrison was born on June 19, 1990 in Great Falls, Montana, to sportscaster Matt Morrison and personal trainer Nancy Morrison. She was primarily given the name Marin because her father was raised in Marin County, California, and is derived from the Latin "of the sea". Morrison was the oldest of three siblings; she had a younger sister, Camlyn, and a younger brother, Michael. She spent portions of her childhood in Lansing, Michigan and later Jacksonville, Florida.
