Welcome to Will's HA WALK Page
Join me as I WALK to End Hydrocephalus!
I was born with Hydrocephalus because I was born really early. It is a life altering, life threatening condition, caused by an abnormal accumulation of cerebral spinal fluid, resulting in pressure on the brain. The most common treatment for this condition is brain surgery.
As most of you all know I had my 19th brain surgery less than one year ago! Wouldn't it be EPIC if there were better options to help me than brain surgery? Wouldn't it be AWESOME if they could figure out what is wrong with me without having to do painful shunt taps and opening my head? This spring I had mono but no one even knew it because everyone thought it was my shunts! The research they are doing right now can make it easier to diagnose issues with shunts and I wouldn't have had to deal with all of this craziness!
You can help!! With your donation more research can be done and more advancements can be made!! They are so close to making dealing with hydrocephalus a lot less scary. We can make a difference! This is why I walk!! Can you please help ?
I am a really tough kid and I deal with so much everyday from having hydrocephalus. I can't get through it without TEAM WILL, my Warriors! Your donation and support is greatly appreciated and will go far in helping us find a cure and improve the lives of people living with hydrocephalus!
Everyone says I am a trooper and I can get through anything but after having more brain surgeries than birthdays, I really wish I didn't have to!
I will stay strong and continue to keep smiling but with your help we can get better options for me and people like me!!
Thank you so much!
Love, Will
