Welcome to Team Jacob's WALK Fundraising Page
As many of you know, our youngest son, Jacob, almost died when he was diagnosed with hydrocephalus 12 years ago.
- 1,000,000 families in the US live with hydrocephalus (ie, same prevalence as HIV and Parkinson's)
- hydrocephalus is incurable
- the only treatment for hydrocephalus is brain surgery, which frequently and repeatedly fails
- the last breakthrough in the treatment of hydrocephalus occurred in the 1950's
- despite its prevalence, only a tiny fraction of research dollars are devoted to hydrocephalus research
