Welcome to Team Brody!
When we found out we were having a son we were more than excited after 3 daughters.
Halfway through pregnancy, doctors let us know that there is something wrong with our baby and the best thing to do is abort him that he will have no quality of life.
8 years later we have a healthy, extremely smart little fighter.
Brody had 2 brain surgeries in the first 2 months of life with many challenges since then, from headaches, shunt clogs, stomach issues from the drain tube, many emergency Dr visits and hospital stays.
That's why we need your help, All donations to The Hydrocephalus Association goes towards the research to find a cure for not only Brody but for all who are effected by Hydrocephalus.
I believe that every dollar we raise for research will have a ripple effect and could be THE dollar that changes everything for a family like ours affected by hydrocephalus.
As you may know, anyone at any age can develop hydrocephalus, a life-altering, life-threatening condition caused by an abnormal accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), resulting in pressure on the brain. The most common treatment for this condition is brain surgery to implant a medical device called a shunt. Sadly, a shunt is not a cure, as device failures are very common and lead to multiple brain surgeries over a patient’s lifetime, in some cases 100 or more.
