Revision

So it is looking more and more like Mason is going to have to have a shunt revision. This morning his head was bulging again. His head is do uncomfortable and so is he. He is not happy. They programmed the shunt to drain more and really it looks about the same. His neurosurgeon said that if it wasn't better tomorrow they would tap to help him and to see if that might open up the drain and unclog. If not better by Monday then shunt revision surgery. Please pray that this would work itself out on its on. Thank you as always for your prayers.

  1. Sorry to hear the shunt is malfunctioning. My son's shunt malfunctioned 11 days after his NICU discharge. He has actually had 13 revisions all in the first 2 years. His current shunts have held up since March 2011. Praying for your little guy.
