Welcome to My WALK Fundraising Page
Join us as We WALK to end Hydrocephalus on August 17th, 2024 to support our son Griffin!
Griffin was diagnosed with hydrocephalus at the age of 4 months and had 2 brain surgeries with 3 months to implant a shunt and then repair a failure in the shunt.
As you may or may not 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.
